Paya curry is a delicacy that is a bone broth made with goat or mutton trotters, slow-cooked in spices for a comforting and nutritious curry .
Paya is traditionally slow-cooked overnight and served for breakfast in winter. Paya translates into feet in Hindi and Urdu and refers to the cut of meat used in this stew. Paya curry is usually a little sticky from all the natural gelatin in the trotters. This dish was particularly popular with the Mughal empire. Similar to other types of bone broth, it has been documented as an alternative remedy for joint pain, coughs and colds.
