Origins Of Kakori Kebab
Kakori Kebab is a famous Lucknow speciality made with minced goat meat. The kebabs are incredibly juicy, flavourful and melt-in-your-mouth tender. Kakori Kebab gets its name from the city of Kakori in Uttar Pradesh, where it was first created.
The history of this mutton kebab dates back to the time of the Mughal Empire. It is said that the dish was created by accident when some minced meat fell off a skewer and into the fire. The cooks were so amazed by the flavour of the cooked meat that they decided to make it into a dish. And so, Kakori Kebab was born!
Today, Mutton Kakori is enjoyed by people all over India. It is often served as an appetizer or main course, and pairs well with green chutney or raita.
