This tasty mutton curry is heavily influenced by Pakistani style of cooking. The freshly pounded spices gave it a real authentic flavor. Tender morsels of lean mutton or lamb tossed over an iron skillet with most exotic spices and yogurt, crushed garlic and ginger root, then covered in light tomato onion curry.

After eating it, I often thought to make it at home and finally now I tried and got it very similar to that actual taste. It has a little spicy taste due to use of green chilies. My whole family also like it. You can adjust the seasoning according to your taste. Goes great with Roghni Naan, salad and Mint raita. A scrumptious dinner !!

This Creamy Liver curry recipe has two of these healthy ingredients i.e. Liver (Kaleji) and Turmeric. I used lamb liver but you can use beef liver or chicken liver if you prefer. Perfect to serve to a crowd when you are entertaining friends – it’s beautifully rich, creamy and aromatic. Great served with toasted bread rolls!
Wash the liver nicely and then steam the liver for ten minutes.
Step 2
Slice the liver into thin pieces about an inch in length.
Step 3
Now take a blender and add the coriander powder, turmeric powder, cinnamon, cloves and cardamom and add a little water and make a fine paste.
Step 4
Now take a pan and heat some oil in it. When the oil is very hot add the mustard and let them crackle.
Step 5
Then put in the finely sliced onions and sauté till golden brown. Add the sliced ginger too.
Step 6
Crush the garlic flakes nicely and add that to the mixture.
Step 7
Now add the freshly ground paste and mix it all up.

Happy Spring Season!!
It is quite sometime that I have not shared recipe on the blog. Not that I did not cook anything at all or I did not click photos, but just lost the mojo for writing somehow. I have been a bit busy these days but I’m back now and as soon as possible I will keep you updated.
Kachnar(Orchid Buds)
On a fine spring morning while on my morning walk I was pleasantly surprised to see beautiful white and pink flowers in bloom. These were on some of the trees at Race Course Park. I stood under these tree for a while to feel its beauty. It sounded so incredibly unique and the words just came. Aww it does smell amazing!
A mali uncle (gardener) shared some interesting information on this tree and its lovely flowers. The tree is called the Kachnar and the flowers are Kachnar flowers. The flowers of this tree vary in colour from white with pink veins to almost purple, and when in bloom it can take your breath away with its beauty and aroma. (SubhanAllah)
Kachnar(Orchid buds)
According Wikipedia:
It’s also known as the Orchid Tree and its botanical name is Bauhinia variegate.
Tender Juicy and Flavorful Kachnar Gosht
While buying some veggies at a nearby grocery store, I saw a bucket full of kachnar buds. And I noticed that many people are buying it. I suddenly remembered the childhood memories, how my father loved to eat Kachnar during the spring season. When we were young kids, this dish was a traditional meal at our home. It was bitter, so we used to hate it back then, but now when I know how much better it was from many de-worming medicines I just feel good that our childhood was much healthier and chemical free.
Kachnar(Orchid buds)
I decided to give this vegetable or herb a try. As I love to cook, especially experimenting with different vegetables. They are relatively expensive as they are only available in spring for a limited period. You would need closed buds to prepare its dish.
kachnar closed buds
My Nani(grandmother) who has more hands-on experience in preparation of this dish said the kachnar need to be washed very well before use to remove the bitter taste.
Tender Juicy and Flavorful Kachnar Gosht
When cooked, they taste a bit bitter. And are good with meat or as a vegetarian dish-that way you get to taste the real unadulterated flavour of this bud. You can faintly taste the perfume of the flower still captive inside the green sheath, and that is delicious.
Tender Juicy and Flavorful Kachnar Gosht
So today we will prepare a traditional Pakistani dish: Tender, Juicy and Flavorful Kachnar Gosht.
