    Tried this recipe a couple of weeks ago and it was a hit. Loved the way the gravy turned out and the pieces had absorbed the flavour so well. Thank you so much Mullai. You never fail to impress 😄

    This looks great! One question: in the photo of the finished dish – what kind of rice is that? That looks good as well. Also is the recipe for the rice on the website?

    Thank you!
