Description
A dish from the streets of Old Delhi Jama Masjid wala mutton Korma. This recipe closely resembles the Mutton Korma you get near the Jama Masjid of Delhi, said the person who gave me the recipe. So, When I read this recipe for the first time, I wasn’t sure it would really work but I decided to give it a try anyways. This was about 4 years back. Since then I have made this dish tens of times and it’s a record that there have been no leftovers after a meal of Jama Masjid Wala Mutton Korma and Nan. Melt in mouth mutton with subtle flavours of mace, green cardamom, saffron and kewra is magical. A Famous Eating place near Jama Masjid – Karim’s In mid 19th century, Mohammed Aziz was a cook in the royal court of Mughal Emperor, however after the Bahadur Shah Zafar was exiled, he left the city for Meerut and later Ghaziabad. However, in 1911, when Delhi Durbar was held for the coronation of the King George V, one of Aziz’s son Haji Karimuddin moved back to Delhi with an innovative idea of opening a Dhaba to cater the people coming from all over India to join the coronation. Haji Karimuddin started the Dhaba selling just two items of Alu gosht (mutton with potatoes) and Daal (lentil curry) served with Rumali Roti. In 1913, Haji Karimuddin Established the Karim Hotel in Gali Kababian, near Jama Masjid, Delhi saying, “I want to earn fame and money by serving the royal food to the common man”. Today, the fourth generation is running the show with Karim Hotels Pvt. Ltd. at Jama Masjid, a Restaurant called Dastar Khwan-E-Karim at Nizamuddin West New Delhi.
