The Hyderabadi shikampuri kebab is a great dish. It can be served as an appetizer. A delicious shikampuri kebab made with a hung yogurt filling and spiced mutton paste. A very royal and tasty kebab.
Have a look on the exotic kebabs from the Royal Kitchens of Hyderabad graciously stuffed with hung yogurt.
