Hyacinth’s Kashmiri Harisa 500 gm

One of the favorite breakfasts of winter Kashmir is the sizzling hot harissa! People welcome the winters with this traditionally prepared delicacy. It is generally eaten at breakfast to ensure body warmth during the cold day and is eaten occasionally and not daily as perceived by some, not that we won’t love to eat it daily . Harissa is a mutton preparation, tempered with onions and ghee/butter or simply vegetable oil. The mutton is cooked, deboned and then slowly stir cooked till it acquires a smooth paste form. The slow stirring is the essence of this mouth watering dish and is done manually till date. Harissa is served hot with flat bread or naan, with tempered onion rings and optionally kebabs.

NOTE: Store in a cool and dry place. Do not consume if can is puffed/swollen/leaking.
