This special leg of lamb preparation was also eaten at the battlefield banquet held to celebrate the legendary friendship of the great conqueror with King Paurava of Takshila. Ever since, eating raan has become a symbol of friendship and binding ties. Like many dishes in the northern part of India, this wonderful keema curry has Persian roots and was brought to India by the Mughals. Using our blend, the simplicity of its preparation makes it a weeknight treat, and its elegance makes it an entertaining classic. It's traditionally made with lamb mince but is just as delicious with any minced meat OR the vegetarian, vegan and plant-based versions.
