When I saw this recipe , it tempted me to try it out. Glad I went ahead and made it, came out so flavorful. Both me and my husband just loved the dish.
Its basically lamb chops, cooked in milk and spices. And later coated with a yogurt marinade and shallow fried in clarified butter ( ghee)
This kashmiri recipe called Kabargah, made by Pundit style cooking. This method of cooking uses more of yogurt,turmeric, and less or no onions, that's what makes this dish more unique! Also spices like cloves, cardamon, , ginger and
fennel are most commonly used.
Traditionally, they cook these lamb chops in ghee ( clarified butter) though now a days if you are more health conscious you can cook them in olive oil too.
They are easy to prepare, follow some simple steps and adding milk, makes them so soft and juicy!!
