Galouti kabab is quite an uncrowned monarch in the kabab territory. The Awadhi speciality with lamb mince is characterised by its melt-in-the-mouth quality.
Legend goes that it was first whipped out for a toothless nawab — hence all tender. Lamb goes into the mince machine, woos in a few spices and the gets fried in ghee.
