Biryani and kebab is a culinary match made in heaven, and Bakstage Gourmet has introduced a host of new flavourful biryanis and kebabs to celebrate this delightful combo. With the temperatures in the city taking a dip, some hot and succulent kebabs and aromatic biryani are sure to set the mood right. t2 recently walked into Bakstage Gourmet in Sector V and here’s getting you our top faves from the menu.
Tulsi Kalmi Kebab: These marinated chicken drumsticks are coated in a mixture containing yoghurt and a host of spices. The drumsticks have a nice dark char on the outside and are perfectly juicy on the inside.
Paneer Bukhni Kebab: This is a zesty dish where cottage cheese meets colourful chopped bell peppers to create soft seekh-style kebabs that melt in the mouth. A fun vegetarian option for sure.
Parda Mutton Biryani: As the name suggests, this biryani gets its final dum in a clay pot covered with a layer or parda made using flour. The meat is tender, the rice grains are distinctly visible and aromatic. This is served with mixed salad and raita on the side.
Hyderabadi Chicken Biryani: A distant cousin of the Awadhi biryani that is usually light, the Hyderabadi biryani is a flavour-packed dish where spices, fried onions, chillies and mint create the main feel of the dish. This too is served with salad and raita on the side.
