AuthorChef Soju PhilipMutton Bafat- A meat delicacy from Mangaluru, Karnataka. Formerly known as Mangalore- this city was my second home for 3 years when I am pursuing my Hotel management course in early Nineties. Very close proximity to the Kerala and its geographical aspects, Mangaluru always possess a cuisine similar to Kerala. Fish and seafood is favorit among many as the city has a good coastal line and abundance of fresh catch. Mutton and pork dishes were very much chosen by the Catholic christians of Mangaluru. I still remember the small stalls and kiosks which were selling 'Sannas'- a spongy rice cake along with tangy meat dishes in the nights and those were best sellers in all streets.
Here I am sharing a recipe which I got from my neighbor, when I was staying there and its worth some to prepare and share.

Peel and slice onions, ginger and garlic. Slice green chillies. Peel the potatoe and cut into dices.
