Author Notes

This immensely flavorful dish hails form Peshawar, in Afghanisthan. It is so close to Pakistan that this dish is found in various Pakistani homes. As with all homey dishes the cooking varies ever so slightly from house to house. To get the best results use goat meat and cook this low and slow until tender. The dish can be done in the instant pot as well. There is a little compromise in flavor but works when you do not have the 2 hours on hand. —Rinku Bhattacharya /Spice Chronicles
