Pasanda with Cucumber Salad
Pasanda is a mildly spiced curry made rich with the use of ground almonds and sweet with raisins. Meaning ‘to like’ or ‘favourite’ in Hindi - in reference to the prime cut of meat that was used in the dish - it was originally cooked for the court of the Moghul emperors. We’re serving this fragrant curry with rice and a green chilli-spiked pomegranate and cucumber salad.
