Mutton Dopyaza

As the name suggests, 'pyaz' means 'onion', Dopyaza is two times the onion is literal meaning. Here the curry is loaded with slightly browned onion paste and finely chopped onions. Husband simply loves Dopyaza He makes sure to dine at Pakistani restaurant for this droolicious curry.
            I have cut down elaborate procedure from the actual recipe I followed just to make it simple, fuzz free cooking and end result is yummy. *Curry is rich, flavorful, creamy, mildly sweet and oh so good with tender mutton pieces falling of the bones.*  Serve hot with chapati/rotis/your choice if flat bread.
