Kebabs in Lucknow | The Kebab Express

3 dishes that are the essence of Lucknow


Awadhi Cuisine inLucknow finds its roots in the heritage of the Kosala kingdom in Ayodhya carried down to the courts of the Nawabs where it was crafted and perfected into the elaborate and intricate cuisine we see today. The Kebab Express owes its style and dexterity to the Bawarchis (chefs) and Rakabdars (gourmet cooks) of Awadh invented the dum style of cooking or the art of cooking over a slow fire, which has become synonymous with Lucknow today. Their spreads consisted of elaborate dishes such as Lucknow kebabs, kormas, biryanis, kaliyas, nahari-kulchas, zarda, sheermal, roomali rotis, and warqi parathas.

In our capacity as one of the Best Non-Veg Restaurants in Lucknow we present 3 dishes that are quintessentially Lucknow on a plate:

1.    Galawati Kebab

Undoubtedly the BestKebabs in Lucknow, the Galawati Kebabs have a rich and fascinating history involving a Toothless Nawab, a huge appetite and a handicapped chef. The special techniques used to make meat palatable for a Royal with no teeth also make it a delicacy for those with all their teeth intact.

2.    Lucknowi Biryani

The debate between Hyderabadi, Kolkata and Awadhi Biryani can never really be settled owing to the various palates of the people enjoying these delicacies. However, the Awadhi variant is considered by many to be richer, more delicate and fragrant due to the Dum Pakht style of cooking, and if you think you’re eating thebest biryani in Lucknow, this is the secret.


3.    Malai ki Gilori
         
Condensed milk flavoured with saffron and spices and wrapped in a thick coat of fresh Malai and sprinkled with Rose Water and Kewda. Yes, this is a real Lucknowi dessert and not a figment of a foodies’ imagination and it can be found across the best restaurants in Lucknow, so don’t miss it after you’ve had proper Awadhi meal.
Bon apetit !
