TL;DR Summary
Laal maas is a spicy Rajasthani mutton curry. In Jaisalmer, ask whether the restaurant uses goat or lamb, how spicy it is, and whether the dish is cooked fresh or reheated.
Laal maas is one of Rajasthan's best-known non-vegetarian dishes. The heat should come from red chillies and slow cooking, not only from generic spice powder.
How to order it
Ask for the meat type, spice level, and preparation time. A good version is rich and hot, but not watery.
Tourist-area caution
Some rooftop restaurants sell mild tourist versions. That may be fine if you want a view, but do not treat it as the most authentic option.
