How to make Nizami Handi, Vegetarian Nizami Handi Recipe. Easy Vegetarian Recipes.
Although Hyderabadi cuisine is known for its richly flavoured meat dishes and kebabs, there are also delicious vegetarian recipes like this Nizami Handi, a mixed vegetable curry enriched with cashew paste, cream and gently flavoured with whole spices. The velvety gravy, and medley of veggies makes this dish a stiff competition to every non-vegetarian counterpart.
Food Lovers’ Editor, Kripal Amanna joins Chef Iqbal at Novotel Hyderabad Convention Center as he makes this rich, aromatic, and gently spiced vegetarian dish made in the ‘Handi’, a traditional wide, heavy-bottomed pot used in Indian cooking. Hence the name of this royal dish!
