Kosha Mangsho: Bengali hot and Spicy Goat Curry
Kosha Mangsho is hot and spicy Bengali delicacy which can be enjoyed with roti, naan or any kind of Indian bread.
 I always enjoy cooking non vegetarian Indian food especially fish and goat. My son is a big fan of Goat meat like me, so love to cook it for him. I usually don’t get goat meat because it is heaty and little heavy to digest. But the other day, my son said that its been long time that we ate mutton. So we got this fresh goat meat from halal market. Whenever I get goat or chicken , I don’t have to hunt for any lunch ideas or dinner ideas. My menu is decided, either it’s curry or biryani.Â
Goat curry tastes yum and more delicious after 2-3 days if you keep it in the refrigerator, with all the flavors  well mixed with the gravy. So, whenever I prepare Goat dishes, I sneakily reserve a little gravy for me in the refrigerator and enjoy it with bread after 2-3 days. 🙂
 I got inspired by this mouth watering , hot ,spicy and juicy mutton curry recipe called Kosha Mangsho or Mutton Kassa, from old Bengali friend of mine. She had mentioned about it to me a few years back and today suddenly , I remembered her. She had told me that it is one of the popular Bengali Recipes. Thought of giving it a try and tried out this mouth watering Goat recipe which an be served with any kind of bread or even with rice. This can also be prepared from Lamb meat. Believe me you won’t forget the taste and the spices just mingle on your tongue. We really enjoyed it.Â
