Attu Kaal Paya


A famous South Indian non veg dish. My mom makes it as a soup to drink. It is also made with little coconut added to accompany with idli/dosa/appam. I got to see goat legs all cleaned up in a nearby store, this was the first time I could find it and was all eager to cook it. Got some tips from my mother in law and cooked.
