Originating from the royal kitchens of Awadh, this Dum Ka Murgh celebrates a centuries-old slow-cooking technique where chicken is cooked in a sealed vessel, allowing flavours to develop naturally over time. This dish honours the tradition of patience, craftsmanship, and the rich culinary heritage of Northern India.
