A slow-roasted chicken, stuffed with egg, dry fruits and served on a bed of saffron-scented basmati rice, it\u2019s a difficult choice between this and the Rampuri Paya Biryani, another regal masterpiece from the kingdom of Rampur and featuring slow-cooked baby lamb with saffron, raisins and lamb jus-enriched basmati rice.<\/p>\n<p>And don\u2019t forget the Jheenga Be-Aab \u2013 prawns cooked in a rich flavourful onion, tomato and cashew nut gravy with a blend of secret spices, and said to be a treasured recipe from the Nizam of Hyderabad\u2019s own kitchen.<\/p>\n<h6>FROM ASHA\u2019S HEART TO YOURS<\/h6>\n<p>Every Asha\u2019s menu is a gift from the heart of this acclaimed globetrotting songstress and cook, as she explains: \u201cOver the years, I have attempted to learn the diversity in Indian food, which changes from region to region.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIndia is the land of countless religions, cultures, languages, dialects and taste buds. This menu is inspired by the past and is designed to be enjoyed in the present, and I sincerely hope that you, your family and friends will share in my family secrets and enjoy the recipes of my heart.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And Asha\u2019s Restaurant fans from around the GCC and beyond agree, as diner feedback shows. Said Zeyna S: \u201cA masterpiece from the kingdom of Ramur, the biryani is ideal for sharing and was heaven, with meat so tender it was literally falling off the bone. The flavours were rich and luxurious.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Another satisfied diner, ConciergeAngel, posted: \u201cAsha\u2019s have a menu at Wafi Mall that\u2019s absolutely \u2018Fit for a King\u2019. The Aloo Khusnuma stuffed potato barrels were topped with a spicy gravy with pomegranate used to create a little explosion of added flavour and the perfect crunch for this hearty vegetarian starter.\u201d<\/p>\n<h6>FINAL FLOURISH<\/h6>\n<p>Asha also recommends saving some room for a final sweet flourish with a duo of royal favourite desserts including Shahi Tukda, a court highlight of Mughal emperors. This unique take on a classic bread pudding features reduced milk accented with vibrant green pistachios and fragrant almonds for a sweet signature indulgence that rounds out your royal Asha\u2019s experience.<\/p>\n<p>The Live Like a Maharaja menu is available until the 30th of September in the UAE.
