Trivia
[Hardcore] Arab-origin 'Harees' met Indian spices as Hyderabad Nizam kingdom court cuisine, achieving ultimate evolution. Ramadan-limited street food; 'edible spice protein' to rapidly recover depleted stamina after sunset (Iftar). Hyderabad streets this period are completely dominated by wooden mallet sounds smashing Haleem and Ghee smells.
