Mutton, Mathania chillies and yoghurt — a hunting dish, and hotter than it looks
Practised for its own sake by the community that carries it. A visitor is a guest, not the reason it happens.
Mewari and Marwari shikar cooking: mutton cooked down in a paste of dried red Mathania chilli, garlic and yoghurt, with almost no water and no tomato. The colour is chilli, not paprika, and the heat is not decorative. Traditionally a game dish cooked in camp, which is why it reduces so far — it had to keep.
Bread baked in embers because the desert had fuel for one fire and no oven
