Before my marriage it was always roti in breakfast at my mom’s place…..and my mom use to make different sabzi or salan or curry to go with it everyday. My mom adds minced lamb meat or lamb pieces to most of the vegetables when she is making side dishes for roti or rice. I remember how I use to skip eating vegetables and pick up lamb meat pieces from the curry. Potato and Okra are my favourite vegetables and when my mom use to add meat to this, I use to serve those veggies too in my plate…but for the rest like taro root, drumstick, etc., I simply use to skip the vegetables….but after marriage…the scene at my MIL’s place is quite different. She never adds meat to vegetables. She cooks meat and vegetable dishes separately. Though I like and enjoy both the styles of cooking….I experiment the combo of two different styles at times….
Last night when my mom made this simple bhendi-gohst ka salan, I took some really quick pictures as this is one of my favourite recipe and for me a perfect accomplishment with piping hot roti’s. Though this recipe sounds simple, it tastes awesome. Tender okra when cooked in the juices of lamb meat tastes delectable and the lamb meat when cooked with simple spice mix tastes yum. So what are you waiting for….if you have not tried okra and lamb meat combo before then try out now….
