Apart from being great builders, the Mughals were also known as great
food connoisseurs. Almost every Mughal emperor has passed on his personal
recipe as he moved along the passage of time, which is known as Mughlai
food. This is why, perhaps, the influence of the Mughals is most felt
in their food. To get the real taste of authentic Mughlai cuisine or
the cuisine of Agra, one need to travel to Agra.
Several of India's famous meat dishes have come from the kitchen of
the Mughals. Apart from introducing the tandoor (earthen oven), used
to make rotis and kababs - which are pieces of meat marinated in spices
and skewered over a coal tandoor. Some of the famous Mughlai dishes
include tandoori chicken, seekh and boti kabab and even tandoori fish.
And Agra being an important Mughal seat for long, it is natural for
the city of the Taj Mahal boasting to be the city serving the best Mughlai
cuisine. The superb Mughlai cuisine with its luscious sauces of milk,
curd, cream and crushed nuts is available in major hotels and restaurants
in Agra
Agra travel is incomplete without savouring the Mughlai cuisine that
the city of Taj Mahal is also famous for. Apart from trying out the
Mughlai spread in the star hotels and restaurants, one should also try
out the small dhabas that dots the city. Some of them serve even better
fares than a regular five-star hotel in Agra
