Hi Aarthi
I tried this recipe and it came out well. I felt the eliachi gives a sweet flavour and dominates the dish. I didnt put 4 eliachi but added only 2.
Aarthi

Hi aarthi, Great blog! Why don't you add any lime/ yoghurt in this recipe to tenderise the meat? Is there a specific reason you left it out?\
