Hyderabadi dishes are princely legacy of the Nizams of Hyderabad, India. The city was founded by the Sultans of Golconda, who has developed its own cuisine over the centuries. It is heavily influenced by Turkish (Biryani), Arabic (Haleem) and Mughlai and Tandoori kebabs which were later influenced as Hyderabadi food.There are quite a few places in Delhi and NCR that churns out lip smacking and authentic Hyderabadi food for their patrons. The latest addition to the list is Biryani Art. Brainchild of Mr. Dharmender Singh, Biryani Art is one of the few places in Gurgaon that serves Hyderbadi Biryani along with a host of other dishes from the region. Biryani Art has recently opened it’s another outlet in Dwarka, after having a successful run in Gurgaon and Malaysia. We present to you a list of four dishes that you must try from this place.
Four dishes you must try at Biryani Art
1. Chicken 65
Andhra style Chicken 65 is one of the most popular appetiser in that region. Chicken pieces were nicely coated with a spice mix and then deep fried till it turned golden and is further sautéed with a spicy yoghurt sauce which keeps a balance of spiciness in this dish. Fried curry leaves and pepper acts as a cherry on the cake.
2. Gosht Shikampuri Kebab
This scrumptious appetiser is from the royal kitchen of Hyderabad. Shikampuri Kebab which means ‘belly-full’ referring to the stuffing in the centre of the kebab is made out of boneless pieces of mutton leg. Along with the minced boneless pieces of mutton is the soft centre filling of mint and yoghurt that provides it the freshness and balance of flavours, along with chopped onions that give it additional crispiness.
3. Chicken Biryani
Unlike, the authentic Hyderbadi Biryani which is known for being too spicy, this version by Biryani Art had a very mild level of spices along with plethora of flavours. Mirchi ka Salan and Raita compliments the biryani.
4. Double Ka Meetha
Double Ka Meetha is sweet bread for those that have a sweet tooth. While Double ka Meetha has a devilishly sugary name – enough to send a person with diabetes into panic – the bread itself was not too sweet something that I personally appreciate.
In a nutshell, Biryani Art is one of the few places in Delhi and NCR, that is churning out delectable Hyderabadi meal to their patrons and living by it’s name.
