Savour Royal Family Recipes in Central Jaipur cooked by a Local

Itinerary

This is a unique opportunity to visit the home of a local and explore traditional culture and cuisine. Himanshu and Deepti live in a traditional family home with their children and three well-behaved dogs. They belong to an erstwhile noble family called Nimaj, a fiefdom of the Marwar state of Rajasthan. Himanshu and Deepti serve unique Rajasthani dishes that have been in their family for generations. At their dining table you will get to taste recipes from the noble families of Nimaj and Chomu. Your menu might include dishes such as chicken kachri handi soola (chicken marinated in yoghurt and spices, lightly smoked and cooked in a pot called handi), bharwa baingan (a stuffed eggplant preparation), gattey ki sabji (dumplings of spiced chickpea flour cooked in a gravy) and safed aloo (a famous family recipe of potatoes cooked in a rich white gravy with almonds, poppy seeds and coconut), served with rice or chapati (flat bread). You will end your meal with a traditional dessert like keshri kheer (rice pudding flavored with saffron and cardamom) and tea or coffee.
