An authentic Rajasthani dish, Laal Maas is prepared using surprisingly simple ingredients.

The latest season of the popular reality show MasterChef Australia: Fans And Favourites went on air earlier this week. The first episode of the show features the contestant preparing history-laden dishes from around the globe. Celebrity chef Sarah Todd, who is among the 24 contestants for the season, chose to prepare a traditional Rajasthani dish for the episode. Taking inspiration from her last trip to Rajasthan, Sarah recreated the popular lamb curry dish, Laal Maas, and served it with bajre ki roti along with pickled mustard seeds.

The rich flavours of the dish left the judges impressed and Sarah later posted a clipping of the episode on her social media pages
