Bibbe theek Ambat ( Cashewnuts in semi spicy coconut gravy)

A slight variation to the "Bibbe Song" , is the "Bibbe theek Ambat" ie Cashew nuts in semi spicy coconut gravy, is for those who prefer less spice in their food.
This is a fantastic recipe, created by my mom for my dad who is not a big fan of spicy food. I serve this dish with puris or rice.

Bibbe Song (Cashewnuts in Tangy Chilli Gravy)

Here is a Classic Raw Cashewnut Spicy curry called "Bibbe Song" which is sure to make your taste buds sing.
Cashew nuts are significant sources of iron (essential for red blood cell function and enzyme activity), magnesium (promotes energy release and bone growth), phosphorus (builds bones and teeth), zinc (essential to digestion and metabolism) and selenium (has important antioxidant properties, thus protecting the body from cancer).
To reduce sodium and added fats in the diet, avoid salted, oil-roasted cashew nuts.
The healthiest form would be raw cashew nuts or dry roasted cashew nuts.
"Song" has no specific meaning in Konkani, but this dish definitely makes your taste buds sing. As this curry dates back to the time when India was ruled by the British, I guess the  educated English speaking Konkanis called this kind of dish as "Song".
This dish goes well with Puri's, Shevai (Indian rice noodles), chapatis and even rice and dal.
This dish is served in almost all weddings in the Coastal region of Karnataka during summer.
"Puri and Bibbe Song" or "Shevai and Bibbe Song" (Indian rice noodles), is a classic combination not to be missed.

Poo's Favourite Lamb Curry

Lamb or mutton curry, has also been one of my favourites since childhood. But somehow I have never liked lamb curry in most restaurants, cause either its not cooked well, or too greasy/oily. So I started making curry at home.
I cook lamb in different styles, but I created and perfected this dish after a lot of trials. Now my family loves this lamb curry so much that we have stopped eating lamb in restaurants. I make this dish using only 1 tsp of any oil. It is also very easy to make since almost all the ingredients are always available in the kitchen.
