This is my Amma's style mutton kulambu.
We used to Eagerly wait for Diwali day, becos this kulambu coupled with Hot and Steaming Idly would be diwali day's breakfast at home. she has a simple but very Tasty way of making it.
It can be served with Rice as well..
Mutton as it is considered to be highly fat contended, we prepare it less frequently, but Mutton Bones are preferred than meat. This kulambu can be made with either of these.
Kulambu milagai thool is the important ingredient.
I swear on God's name, i am not as great as mom who is perfect in proportionating the ingredients, so that all kulambus at home is superrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.....
She gives me the kulambu podi every month(Sometimes it lands at my doorstep through courier too) and I keep using it happily, One fine day i should also try doing it on my own getting ideas from Mom without messing up, But cant wait to share this recipe with you.
