Nihari is a delicious, slow-cooked stew made from shank meat and marrow bones. Nalli Nihari can be made with lamb, mutton, or even chicken. The meat of the shank is mostly circular thigh meat. The muscles of the upper thigh of animals are tough, dry, and full of marrow due to their bone composition. Gelatin comes from this specific sort of bone. Gelatin is a deteriorated type of collagen that releases collagen into the stew after hours of boiling.

This winter season Aminia has come up with delicious treats like Nalli Nihari with Taftan (Awadhi Rooti), Gajar Ka Halwa (Dessert) for the patrons to savor.
