TANDOORI AND MUGHLAI

The Mughlai Delight
The most popular cuisine is Mughlai owing its origin in India with the entry of the Mughals in the 16th century. They introduced a new style of cooking, using clay ovens or 'tandoors' as they are known. Several local herbs and spices found their way into these dishes, giving rise to a style called Mughlai food.

For gourmets, Delhi is synonymous with Mughlai and frontier cuisines. The best of Mughlai cuisine can be enjoyed at Karim, situated both in Jama Masjid and Nizamuddin, where recipes, dating from the times of the Mughals have been the closely guarded secret of generations of chefs.

Delhi Ka Aangan in Hyatt Regency, Darbar in Ashoka Hotel and Corbetts Claridges are among the many options available in the expensive range, while Gulati Restaurant in Pandara market, Angeethi in Asiad Village and Degchi in Regal building are among those catering to more modest budgets.
