I watched my mother,Aunt and sisters making this curry when I was 10 years old and then when I was in college I worked part time in a restaurant and Bar in Hyderabad,India and used to watch the Ustaad(Chef) grind all the herbs and spices in old fashined stone grinder and marinade Meat and refrigerate for at least 4 hours before cooking,it came out heavenly delicious and so tender it would melt in your mouth without chewing,I have changed the level of spice to milder side,as in southern part of India the spice level is almost like FIRE in your mouth.Also I have changed some ingredients and some quantity of ingredients.Try it,you would want to make this dish part of your every week Lunch or Dinner.
