Kashmiri Cuisine

From the slow simmer of Wazwan kitchens to a quiet morning bowl of Kahwa — taste the valley with dishes hand-picked from local wazas and old-city kitchens.

Signature 4.9
Lamb · Aromatic

Rogan Josh

Slow-cooked lamb in a deep red gravy of Kashmiri chillies, fennel, dried ginger and yogurt — the dish that defined the valley's wazwan tradition. Mild heat, deep colour, layered aromatics — not the fiery curry many imagine, but a balanced, refined preparation.

Gushtaba

Featherlight lamb meatballs poached in saffron-laced yogurt — the regal finale to every traditional Wazwan feast. The meat is pounded by hand for hours until silken; the gravy delicately spiced with cardamom and dried mint.

Rice · Sweet & Savoury

Kashmiri Pulao

Fragrant basmati layered with caramelised onions, dry fruits, pomegranate seeds, fresh apple and the gentle hum of cardamom and saffron. The sweet-savoury balance is what makes Kashmiri Pulao unmistakable from any other pulao in north India.

Lotus Stem · Yogurt

Nadru Yakhni

Crisp Dal Lake lotus stems simmered in a pale, fennel-and-mint-scented yogurt gravy. Winter on a plate — served from old-city homes to wazas with a side of rice. A proof that Kashmiri food handles vegetables with the same care as meat.

Tea · Saffron

Kahwa

Green tea brewed with saffron strands, crushed almonds, cinnamon bark and cardamom pods — every Kashmiri home's answer to a cold morning. Served in a small samovar, poured into khos cups, sipped slowly through long winter conversations.

Dessert · Sweet

Phirni

A chilled rice-and-milk pudding, slow-cooked till the grain dissolves and the milk thickens, then set in earthen bowls and crowned with crushed pistachios, slivered almonds and a few rose petals. The traditional Eid sweet — and the perfect wazwan ending.
