MURGH E MUSALAM - EID SPECIAL DISH

MURGH E MUSALAM - EID SPECIAL DISH Murgh means Chicken, and Musallam means whole in Farsi/Persian. I am sharing this recipe which I have learned from my Mom. She makes this dish only for very special occasion or very special guests. I have heard that this dish was made for Kings, Sultans and Dukes back then.
