We have all heard of Dum Biryani or mutton , but what is this Dum.? Dont worry here is your answer.. Dum pukht can be translated as ‘dum’ meaning ‘breathe in’ and ‘pukht’ meaning ‘to cook’. It basically refers to letting the dish breathe in its own aroma or juice to make it more flavourful. Therefore large handis are sealed with dough or cloth to trap the steam, which then cooks the meat or rice until tender. The technique may be based on earlier Persian cooking methods introduced in the subcontinent but traditions assigns its origin in pre partition India to the reign of Nawab Asaf-ud-Daulah (1748-97) So being in Hyderabad and if my page doesnt have a single Dum based Post then its a big criminal offence for me 😜😉 So #whatsonmyplate is #dumchicken a preparation that has harmony of flavours , seculent and yet very very simple to cook, mix everything, seal and leave it on slow flame 🤘.
