Duck, bamboo shoots, various types of spices such as sliced onion, paste of garlic and ginger, cumin, garam masala, turmeric, chilli powder, panch phoron and salt, as well as yogurt, tomato, mustard seeds and a little amount of almond, green pepper and cinnamon.[9][10]

Procedure

Oil is heated first in a frypan before adding sliced onion to it. When the onion becomes a little soft, the ginger, garlic, almonds and mustard is poured and stirred. When it is slightly fried then the rest of ingredient is to be seasoned with spices. After that, adding some water, the boneless duck flesh should be poured into the pan.[1] When the meat is cooked, reducing heat of the cooker it's required to add some peppers and bamboo shoots and cover the pot for a while. Then the mixture is removed from the stove by spreading panch phoron and mix powdered milk with water as required.[9]
