Chettinad Elumbu Kuzhambu with Step by Step Pictures. Spicy brothy lamb bone curry made using onions, drumsticks, spice powders and whole spices which taste amazing with rice or roti.
Mutton Elumbu Kuzhambu Recipe
Did you know that mutton bone has more flavour that the meat. When you make soup or curries try using mutton with bones for maximum flavour and taste. This is a delicious curry which i made using mutton or lamb bones, i added drumstick and potatoes in this for more taste. This is a village style style recipe and goes extremely well with appam, idiyappam, rice, roti, idli or dosa.
I used a pressure cooker to cook the lamb bones. if you don't have a pressure cooker, you can just cook it in a pot, it may take a lot of time to cook but still it will taste great.
