List of Kashmiri dishes
Kashmiri cuisine consists of a wide variety of dishes, listed below.
Barbecue
One version of the origin of kababs is the one in which Turkish soldiers were first known to grill chunks of meat on open fires.[1] Kashmir's kababs are cooked with local spices and accompanied with dips:[1]
- Kabab, condimented minced meat, roasted or fried, on skewers.[2] According to chef Ghulam Nabi Dar (aka Bitte Waaze), the meat for the kabab is first minced with a very sharp knife (haché au couteau), then it requires an egg, cumin, cardamom and garlic, then it needs to be minced some more until it becomes a paste, then it is mounted on 1 m long skewers to be reheated the day after.
- Kokur kabab, chicken kebab.[3]
- Lahradar kabab, also known as lahabi/moachi kabab. Minced mutton classically shaped like a boat with a depression in the centre, cooked in curd based mild spicy gravy. Once softened, the meat is soaked overnight in egg and at least nine different seasonings and spices, including onions, red chili powder, nutmeg, garam masala, ginger, garlic and coriander. It is typically served with yoghurt.[4][5][6]
- Kokur lahabdar kabab ruwangan, chicken kebabs in rich tomato gravy.[7]

Breakfast
For the average Kashmiri, breakfast normally means fresh bread from the local bakery and a cup of noon chai (salt tea).[22] While the bread is there in all the seasons for the breakfast, its accompaniments change.[23] Some affordable luxuries include:
- Harisa, made by specialised cooks called harisaguyr, Harisa is a popular meat preparation made for breakfast, it is slow cooked with spices in a special underground oven for a 24-hour period and hand stirred.[24][23] A good harisa entails a meticulous mincing of deboned mutton, mixed with local rice, fennel seeds, cinnamon, cardamom and salt.[22] Cooked on sim fire for at least 6 to 8 hours, boiling smoky mustard oil and some milk is poured while the wooden masher continues to stir.[23] Small kebabs are made to be served along with and also a small serving of Methi (lamb's intestines cooked in fenugreek) and tempered onion rings.[23] The dish is so tasty that one 18th century Afghan governor, who came here during the Afghan Rule, is believed to have over-eaten himself to death.[25]
- Harisa zafrani, sprinkled with Kashmiri saffron. A maker in Aali Kadal was known for this peculiar dish.[26]
- Luchi & halwa, by luchi makers outside Kheer Bhawani shrine.[27]
- Makai vath, cooked granular maize meal.[28] Used to be a staple food in the unirrigated highland villages, where rice could not be grown.[28]
- Gaer vugra, water chestnut flour porridge. These water chestnuts or buffalo nuts are called gaer in Kashmiri.[28] They grow in shallow waters at many places, especially near the shore of the famous Wular lake.[28] In India, these water chestnuts also grow but are generally bigger in size and have more water content.[28] Generally eaten with churned yoghurt diluted with water (gurus).[28]
- Vushki vath, barley meal porridge.[29] Cooked as a staple food in some hilly villages of Kashmir, where rice or maize is not easily available or grown.[29]
Wazwan dishes
Unlike most dishes of the Indian subcontinent where the flavour is added to the food while cooking on the flames, the wazwan flavours are added while the dish is still uncooked by adding flavoured water to the preparation or soaking in flavoured water (osmosis):[30]
- Tabakhmaaz, rib racks in ghee with sweet fat lodged between lacquered slips of meat[31] Kashmiri Hindus commonly refer to this dish as Qabargah. It seems to have travelled from Kazakhstan where it is known by its Pandit name, Qabargah.[32] While Qabargah is simmered on a low heat for a longer duration and then fried very quickly, Tabakhmaaz is boiled with salt and garlic and characterised by a slightly elastic texture.[33][34]

- Goshtabeh[86] minced mutton balls with spices in yogurt gravy. Also known as 'The Dish of Kings' in Kashmir region and the last dish of the banquet.[87] Jawaharlal Nehru once named it 'the cashmere of meats'.[88] Legendary Bollywood actor Yusuf Khan aka Dilip Kumar was said to love goshtabeh the most.[89] In December 1955, Bakshi Ghulam Mohammad, the then Prime Minister of Jammu and Kashmir and Nikita S. Khurschev, the first secretary of the Soviet Communist party were captured in an iconic photograph feeding each other goshtabeh.[90]
- Beef riste.[91]
- Beef goshtabeh.[91] Pulverised beef with 25 per cent fat is pounded into a pulpy mass and seasoned before being shaped into meatballs.[92] It is then immersed in a seasoned hot water bath, before being placed in a bubbling-hot broth of well-churned yoghurt, laced with milk and some beef stock and cooked to a semi-thick consistency.[92] The original recipe calls for very fatty buffalo meat, which can pose quite a challenge for the unprepared palate.[92]

Vegetarian sides

- Dum olav/Dum aloo, potato cooked with ginger powder, fennel and other hot spices. The most skilful part is to prick potatoes after frying them so that the gravy or the sauce gets absorbed in the potato, making them spongy and enhancing the flavour profile of the multiple potato-folds.[95]

Mushrooms
Native to the Himalayan foothills, Guchhi or kanaguchhi mushrooms (species in the genus Morchella, commonly known as morels elsewhere) are highly prized not only in Kashmir but internationally, particularly in European gastronomy. With the exception of a few very limited and experimental successes, efforts to cultivate (kana)guchhi or morels at a large scale have been unsuccessful and consumption relies on the harvest of wild mushrooms.[141] As a result, these mushrooms rank among the most expensive of all fungi, with a kilogram of such mushrooms costing up to 30,000 INR in India (as of 2023; approximately €330/kg, or US$350/kg).[142]
Traditional or well known dishes include:
- Kanaguchhi yakhean, morels cooked in rich yoghurt gravy.[143]
- Kanaguchhi matar masala, an absolute flavour bomb of delicious morels picked by locals.[144]

- Shajkaan, aka Kanpapar (Geopora arenicola) mushroom, fried with onions and tomatoes, or even prepared with milk.[147]
Tschaman
Paneer is called tschaman in Kashmiri.[148] The spicing falls into the sweet-savoury spectrum which means using a lot of cinnamon, mace and clove alongside earthier spices like cumin seed and ground coriander.[148] The scarcity of fresh ginger in mountain geography also means that ground ginger is a spice staple.[148] Paneer recipes are:
- Tschaman Kanti, cubes of cottage cheese that are fried, tossed in select spices and stir fried with onions and tomatoes.[149]
- Lyader Tschaman. lyadur means yellow which is due to the presence of turmeric, and tschaman is cottage cheese.[150] The term 'yellow gravy' might not do justice to the complexity of flavor you get from layering nine spices, some of them whole, with green chilies and simmering them in water before thickening the sauce with milk.[151] British Indian chef Romy Gill called it 'a bowl of golden yellow deliciousness'.[151]
- Veth Tschaman, also known as Vozij Tschaman. This is the rogan josh equivalent.[110]

Fish
The age-old practice of shadow fishing is locally known as Tchaayi Gaad in Anchar lake in the Soura vicinity of Srinagar city.[170] Fishermen row their boats early in the morning, breaking the frozen part of the lake to catch fish with a harpoon.[170] They create a shadow on the nook of their boat by hiding themselves under a blanket or a makeshift umbrella made of straw to attract the fish and later strike the approaching fish with the harpoon.[170] The banks of the lake of yore used to be dotted with thickets of willow trees under whose shadow the fish would take refuge during summers, thereby easing the task for the local fishermen to catch them.[171] Common fish dishes are:
- Nader ti Gaad, fish (Bilose, Zob,[172] Indian Major Carp, Catla, Rohu, Margarita, Mahseer,[173] Snow Trout, Niger, Chush, Khront, Churu etc.[174]) cooked with lotus stem, a delicacy cooked on festival days like Eid, Navroze and Gaadi Batti (Festival of Kashmiri Pandits).

In certain rural areas, the tradition of putting an egg or two in kanger (fire pot) is known to each individual.[206] The fragrance of an egg cooking in the kanger would trigger the enzymes signalling the egg is ready:[206]

Game (shikaar)
Going by estimates, on an average 50-60 birds are killed every day in wetlands across Kashmir:[213] Hunted game (shikaar) is not generally cooked immediately.[214] It has to be hung for some days (faisander) before dressing it for cooking. Hanging makes the meat suppler and less fibrous, making it tastier to eat.[214]
In British India, markhor (screw horn goat) was considered to be among the most challenging game species.[215] It is the largest wild goat in the world.[216] It is locally regarded as the tastiest wild meat.[217]
Indian wild boar was introduced in the Himalayan region by Maharaja Gulab Singh, a Dogra military general.[218] Its meat was a great delicacy for the Dogras and Sikhs, but after 1947 its population started dwindling in the Muslim-majority region.[218]
Game dishes are:
- Pacchin Dumpokhta, pintail. Called the king of the winter cuisine in Kashmir, it is a delicacy enjoyed by Kashmiri Pandits who would not normally eat chicken.[219][23] The migratory bird looks like a duck but can fly with great speed. It comes to wetlands of Kashmir during winter.[220] It is deep fried and cooked with hot spices.[23] The meat under the shining bluish golden feathers is tough but delicious and has a warming effect.[23]
- Batook Palak, duck with spinach.[114]
- Batook Ta Zamut Dodh, duck in a curd curry.
- Gogji Ta Batook, duck with turnip. Autumn (harud) duck has a lot of flavor in it.[221] This combination of tender duck meat with the earthy sweetness of turnips reflects the region's culinary prowess, emblematic in the sublime slow-cooked method known as dum[222]. It is winter comfort food in Kashmir.[222]

Kashmiris are fond of sugar.[239] Common sweetmeats are:

English pastry
Before 1918, Abdul Ahad Bhat, of Ahdoos, was under the tutelage of English bakers at Nedou's, a hotel in Srinagar owned by Austro-Swiss Michael Nedou.[258] He quickly picked up the art of baking, and started a small bakery, the first by a Kashmiri at that time.[258] Ahdoos's forte was English goodies, and as India inched towards freedom from British Rule he added Kashmiri items to the menu.[258] Mughal Darbar was established on Residency Road in 1984 and on the road parallel is Jee Enn, founded by Ghulam Nabi Sofi in 1972.[258] Many of the owners and staff of these new bakeries have trained in Ahdoos.[258] The variety of pastries include:

The Kashmir Valley is noted for its bakery tradition, that of the qandarwan. Nowhere else in the Indian subcontinent can be found such a huge variety of leavened breads, another pointer to the Central Asian influence on Kashmiris' food habits.[262] On the Dal Lake in Kashmir or in downtown Srinagar, bakery shops are elaborately laid out. Bakers sell various kinds of breads with golden brown crusts topped with sesame and poppy seeds.
Different kinds of traditional Kashmiri breads include:
- Tsoet and Tsoechvor/Tilvor are crisp and flaky small round breads topped with khaskhash (poppy) and til (sesame) seeds.[263] A local bagel of about three inches diameter and six inches circumference, the upper half is soft and the lower crust is crispy.[263] It is the evening/afternoon bread.[263]
- Sheermal, a saffron flavoured traditional flatbread said to have originated in Iran.[264] It is offered in both sweet and flavourful versions.[264] The sheermal bread is usually dented with multiple patterns bordering on corresponding lines.[264]
- Baqerkhayn (puff pastry), Kashmiri bakerkhani has a special place in Kashmiri cuisine. It is similar to a round naan in appearance, but crisp and layered, and sprinkled with sesame seeds.[265] It is typically consumed hot during breakfast.[266]
- Lavasa, thin unleavened flat bread, white in colour, made of maida (finely-milled wheat flour).[263] It is a paper-thin blistered naan.[263] Some lavasas are soft while others are crispy.[263]
- Girda, made with dough that has been fermented overnight, rolls of dough are flattened out by hand and finger impressions are pressed into it to give you lines that run down its length.[263] Girda and lavas are served with butter.
- Kulcha, baked exclusively with ghee, this small, hard, dry, crumbly bread, is usually round in shape.[263] It is decorated by placing a peanut in the centre of the upper face.[263]
- Roth khabar, a cake-like sweet bread made in traditional tandoor and covered with dry fruits.[267]
Wazwan
Wazwan (Kashmiri pronunciation: [ʋaːzɨʋaːn]) is a multi-course meal in Kashmiri cuisine, originating from Kashmir.
Almost all the dishes are meat-based using lamb, beef or mutton with few vegetarian dishes. It is popular throughout the larger Kashmir region. Moreover, Wazwan is also served internationally at Kashmiri food festivals and reunions.[268] All dishes are prepared according to halal standards. For vegetarians, there are distinctive delicacies such as Dum Alve, Nadur (lotus stem), Haakh (collard greens), Kashmiri vegetarian pulao is a flavorful dish prepared with aromatic Kashmiri spices, vegetables, and a mix of dried fruits, creating a rich and delightful culinary experience.
