Foodnote
Also known as Tulang Merah from the deep red coloring that the hawker usually added that will leave your fingers, lips and tongue bright red. I am not a fan of the red coloring so I will gladly leave it out. I bought the mutton and spice from Tekkah market because the bone have more meat on it and I can cook it till it is so soft and tender. Always nice to make your own favorite food and know what ingredients goes into it.
