About Yakhni

Yakhni is a traditional South Asian dish, renowned for its rich flavor and comforting aroma. Rooted in Kashmiri and Mughal cuisine, it features a delicate broth made primarily from slow-cooked meat, such as chicken or mutton, simmered with aromatic spices like cinnamon, cardamom, and cloves. Yogurt is often used to enhance its creamy texture and tangy flavor. While Yakhni is usually served with rice, it stands out as a protein-rich meal with essential nutrients from the meat and the wholesome spices. Additionally, the use of yogurt contributes probiotics that support gut health. However, depending on preparation, the dish can be high in saturated fats, especially if fatty cuts of meat or excessive oil are used, so moderation is key. Overall, Yakhni offers a balance of taste and nourishment, making it a cherished and satisfying comfort food.
