  4. Thanks for this finger licking recipe! Anyone who sees this will try Gongura Mutton for sure. I am also going to try it out and enjoy the dish! A distinctive taste of sorrel leaves and lamb curry is a rare combination and you have blended the ingredients so rightly that it impresses everyone. You can also try Gongura Mutton Pickle / Sorrel Mutton Pickle from Sitara Foods.
