Ask a true blue Hyderabadi and they will tell you the best food is to be had at someone’s home. But where does one find untouched by commercial elements traditional food? Here is where Khassa by Shahnoor steps in. Well preserved recipes, mixed Shahnoor’s passion to showcase this cuisine dictates the menu. Food with stories to tell is the best kind there is.

Dum ka Murgh, with its rich cashew gravy, was the other traditional dish that stood out. Tamatar ka Kut and Dalcha were comfort food which I enjoyed with steamed rice. And of course, the warm Sheer Korma at the end of the meal was brilliant.

Mutton Roast was again a masterpiece, with the lamb moist & soft (off the bone) and the sauce was to die for, with plenty of sauce, grilled vegetables (baby potatoes & cauliflower & carrots) .. Quzi was THE signature special, slow roasted lamb (about 8 hours) garnished with roasted almonds, raisins & mishris! Zafrani Badam Kheer was the perfect way to a very fabulous dinner. Kudos to Shahnoor Jehan & her family for their unique brand of warm Hyderabadi hospitality.

The Haleem by Shahnoor is amongst the best you'd get in the city. As is the luxuriant Badam ka Kund. However, Khaasa goes beyond the well known signatures and features some rare gems. The Mutton Roast, which was popular amongst the Hyderabadi aristocrats, is quite visibly influenced by European ingredients and cooking techniques. I enjoyed Quzi, Lamb slow roasted for 8 hours with almonds and raisins, arrived in Hyderabad with the Yemeni settlers.

I always believed that the true traditional Hyderabadi cuisine existed in those select few families of Hyderabad and those exclusive catering services. Today I'm once again proved correct, i was recently introduced to Khassa by Chef (Home) Shahnoor Jehan. I would like to mention two of my favourites from the menu - Dum ka Murgh that was like nothing I had before with an amazing flavour and subtle smokey aroma to it. Second, being the Zafrani Badam Kheer - the consistency and texture were so good that I couldn't resist from having one more serving.
