Layered braised lamb with fragrant spices and rice casserole
An exquisite Moghul dish, this is a vivid example of the extreme sophistication and beautiful presentation of Indian cuisine. Named after the emperor who built the Taj Mahal, this dish pays tribute to the beauty of the edifice in its own creation using silver foil as decor (another Muslim inspired practice) and as well as screw-pine essence to enhance both flavor and smell. The use of flower and plant essences is another very traditional component in Indian cooking. Also, as a garnish, the dish requires cashews which were brought in by Portuguese traders from the Americas during the 15th century.
