Its an extreamly rich gravy/curry dish. Its also rich in cholesterol too. So limit your intake. Serve just 1-2 spoons as a side dish. Definetely it tastes good! Try this with pooris or kashmiri pulavs.

Serve them warm along with pooris, pilaf, biriyani, pulkas, chappathi or even plain steam-cooked rice.
