Dum Ka Murgh
Dum Ka Murgh is a non-vegetarian lunch from North India. It is made with chicken, yogurt and saffron. One serving has about 280 kcal, 30 g protein, 8 g carbs and 14 g fat.
Did you know? The marinade includes raw papaya for tenderizing and saffron for aroma. What makes it special is the layering of partially cooked rice over the chicken before final cooking. Some versions use rose water for extra fragrance. Traditionally served at Nizami feasts in copper vessels. The slow cooking preserves nutrients while developing complex flavors. Modern home cooks might use pressure cookers but lose some authenticity. Best enjoyed with mirchi ka salan.
