This is must have dish after 2-3 weeks of Bakra Eid. And I usually wait for a holidays so everyone at home and enjoy this delicious meal. Usually, I steam it for 3-4 hrs and roast it in a pot but this time, i kept it for steam only for 1.5 hrs on low flame and then transfer it to baking dish and put it in oven for 1.5 hrs. After overnight marination with spices and yogurt and steaming process, made the meat more flavorful, juicy and tender.
