Traditionally yours

HYDERABAD:Rivayaat. The term from Hindustani language means traditions. Talk about the colourful traditions of couture and cuisine of India. Talk about much-remembered dishes from Awadh, Dilli, Punjab and Hyderabad. It’s at a food festival that you can relish all at the same table. Rivayaat, the food festival, by Trident Hyderabad at its restaurant Kanak is highlighting authentic recipes from different parts of the country.

Noteworthy about the food promotion is that none of dishes are overpowered by spices or oil. The taste is balanced much like ghar ka khana that makes you feel asking for that extra helping of Punjabi Matar Pulao. The rice was done with butter and crushed fried onions. It tasted well with Puran Singh Ke Dhabe Wali Chicken Curry. The curries served had neither too thick nor too thin gravy. Mahi Kaliya – a preparation of bekti fish of Bengal was prepared in onion and tamarind gravy along with other spices. The result was a succulent and juicy fish piece.

The Lucknowi Dal served along side the rice was roasted and then cooked which gave it a smoky flavour and home-like taste. Baigan Ka Bharta was simple as was Sarson Ka Saag which we enjoyed with Makke ki Roti. In the appetizers you must not miss Kumbh Ki Gilavat as it’s quite a challenge to find out that it’s not a mutton kebab, but is made from mushrooms. The taste is as good as the mutton kebab that dissolves in mouth. The festival is on till January 25. Time: 7 pm – 11:30 pm. Charges: for the set menu is `2,100+ per head
