Translates as 'red meat' red being the colour the chillies impart. I use Kashmiri chillies instead of the ordinary ones; they're milder and impart colour rather than flavour. I've used lamb and potatoes for this dish.
Sweet Raita
Raita is a yogurt based accompaniment to hot Indian curries. Yogurt (and other milk products but yogurt's the best) contains casein, a protein which neutralizes capsaicin (that's what makes chillies HOT). So its a good idea to serve a yogurt based side along with hot curries. This one's made of greek style yogurt with greek forest honey and brown raisins.
