On my work on Indian curries I always wondered why people made a fuss about dhabha style and restaurant style and what is the actual difference between then I researched about it and found out that there are really logical reasons about them…
Dhabha style is more to towards classic style of cooking simpler ingredients are used and that is what makes the difference so here is my Dhabha style curry I hope you like it 🙂
