Chinioti Mutton Machhli Recipe

on

The Chinioti Mutton Machhli is a regional mutton favorite from the Chiniot region in Punjab, Pakistan. The dish is made of tender lamb shanks (or shin) – the same portion that is often found in the Nalli Nihari.

The spices used to cook this dish are traditional gravy ingredients with hints of chili, mint and saffron. Yogurt is also added to give the curry a thick and rich consistency to make your salivary glands work overtime.
