  1. How much meat? I somehow scanned through the whole thing and haven’t seen it.

      Sorry about that, in the transfer of recipes, the amount of meat was accidentally omitted. I have edited it now to include that.

  2. Hi Fauzia,

    Is there any substitute to red chili powder?? I can’t eat red chili. Once ,I tried one of your recipe without the red chili powder, it became dull. It was not reddish like in the photo.Can it be replaced by tandoori powder or paprika powder???

    Please advise!
