Hi Komal. A slight correction here. Xacuti is a Goan preparation. It is NOT called "Bottle Masala". Bottle Masala is a masala that is prepared by the East Indian community ( made frm 52 diff. spices) and is a world apart from Xacuti masala. They are people who are the original inhabitants of Bombay. - 11/16/10
