    Assalamualaikum anjum.. I made haleem today... Everything is perfect but it got over salty.. Can you please let me know how to fix the extra salt??

    Wlks, a better way to get rid of excess salt in any curry or food item is to make a small dough of wheat floor and drip in the curry. This will absorb the excess salt to a larger extent

    Hope this helps

    Hi Anjum. Very nice blog. Some great recipes in here.
    One question on Haleem, when you say grind mutton, do we remove mutton from the masala and grind or grind the entire mutton masala mixture?

      suji is something entirely different. and it can't be used in this recipe. the taste will be v dfrnt . u must use only broken wheat or whole wheat in this recipe. then only u can get the real yummy taste of it.

    Dear sanober, u can use dalia( broken wheat) instead of whole wheat. For every 1kg of mutton use 1 tea cup of dalia, I suggest you also use some mutton with bone in this recipe, remember to discard the bones after condensing the muttonAlso add fresh ground cardamom powder in ur final step.
