Reviews & Comments

Personally I like Lamb and Lemon Rice (Mutanjan) to enjoy at home, I also like to make it myself. However my mom likes other dishes from Indian Recipes.

  • Mehrab, Sukkur

good recipe it is. I like variations in rice and that is something that appeals me. I will try it at weekend and hope my hands would show the same dedication they show while making other delicious foods.
