Mutton Egg Masala

I'm someone who believe cooking is what you cook. It's all about personal preference and no one can say it's wrong as long as you know the right way to use the available ingredients and balance it well. End of the day the taste and nutritional values is the most important part of dishing out family dish. 

Egg is something I always stock up in my fridge and it's always available for "emergency". I have come up with different variations with eggs and this time I throw them into my mutton masala for an extra kick. What brought the dish to the next level is the masala. Mint and mutton goes really well together. By adding ground mint masala to the delicious mutton it's somehow like having a green chutney in your spicy mutton masala. Right now while typing this recepi, an idea kicking in for another yummy mutton recepi. Hope to try it soon. Meanwhile, try this awesome mutton recepi at your own kitchen and enjoy.
