Mutton / Aatu Thala Curry / Lamb Head Curry, is a delicious and authentic Tamilnadu Style recipe.
It’s such a flavorful recipe, people will get tempted while cooking itself…I prepared this recipe when I was in my Parents-In-Law home; they enjoyed this curry with hot steamed rice for lunch and with Tiffen for dinner too.
