Tender galouti kebabs that melt in your mouth with a burst of fabulous Awadhi cuisine flavours. This galouti kebab recipe for the King of Kebabs from Lucknow has finely ground keema seasoned with a bouquet of herbs and spices; laced with the mild smokiness of ghee; the goodness of nuts; and finished with the richness of fresh thick cream!
Legend has it that the galouti kebab was invented for an old toothless Nawab of Lucknow who was not ready just as yet to give up the pleasures of kebabs. Hence the name ‘galouti’ or ‘galawati’ which literally means ‘melt’ or melt in the mouth. We are unsure about the veracity of this legend but will vouch for the amazing tenderness and melt-in-your-mouth texture of these galouti kebabs for sure!
