Titar No Shaak

Partridge (titar) curry made in the Kutchi pastoral tradition — the wild bird slow-cooked with shallots, mustard oil, whole spices, and dried red chillies in a thin, peppery gravy. Partridge hunting has a long history among the pastoral Rabari and Ahir communities of Kutch, and this game meat curry is prepared on special occasions and at village gatherings, eaten with bajra rotlo.
