Kashmiri cuisine on platter for Delhi foodies – Times of India

By Lisa On Nov 29, 2023

For those who crave authentic Kashmiri food in Delhi, chefs Rahul Wali and Sunil Mattoo curated a Kashmiri food festival with some well-known and not-so-known dishes from the cuisine. Talking about the special cuisine that was being served at K3, JW Marriott New Delhi, chefs said, “The allure of Kashmiri cuisineindeed gained recognition a bit later than the food offerings of the rest of the country.The region remains largely unexplored. The intricate flavours of Kashmiri cuisine are an amalgamation of its rich history and culture, with a strong influence from Central Asia, Persia, and the North Indian plains. While only a few Kashmiri dishes have truly been savoured, many regional and traditional delicacies are yet to be discovered. Kashmiri cuisine is renowned for its delectable non-vegetarian dishes; however, vegetarian food is equally flavoursome. Traditional dishes like Rajma Gogji, (Kashmiri red beans and turnip), Tsok Tsarvan (mutton liver in tamarind-based sauce), Dal Nadur (green moong dal and Lotus stems) and Tsochael (mallow leaves) and many more represent the true essence of Kashmir and its culture.”
