Did you know? Nizam's chef created this by slow-cooking chicken in sealed dough ('pardah') for 8 hours. The gravy thickens with cashew paste and 'khus-khus' (poppy seeds). Served in original clay pots at weddings - breaking the seal releases aromatic steam. The recipe uses 21 spices including rare 'patthar ka phool'.
