On Wednesday, Priyanka Chopra posted a picture of her enjoying Delhi's famous Daulat Ki Chaat at the Indian Accent, Lodhi. Cash in my dessert, she captioned the image. The creamy dessert, loaded with chunky nuts, is truly one-of-a-kind and is served with 500 rupee notes at the award-winning Delhi restaurant.
"Cash in my dessert. Now that's a first #daulatkichaat #onlyinindia #delhistories #setlife #thewhitetiger," Priyanka captioned the image captured by actor Rajkummar Rao.
Daulat ki chaat is an Old Delhi speciality; it goes by the names of Nimish in Lucknow and Malaiyyo in Banaras. The unique dessert is typically found in winter months. It is made by churning milk rigorously overnight. The creamy foam that collects on top is scooped out, mixed with sugar and served with a topping of cardamom, pistachios, and almond flakes.
Delhi is a treasure trove of unique delicacies. 'Daulat' in Hindi refers to 'wealth'. According to legends, it was a delicacy that could be afforded only by the rich; hence, it became popular as daulat ki chaat. In some restaurants, like The Indian Accent, you can find daulat ki chaat all-year-round. The melt-in-your-mouth dessert is surely nothing like anything you have had before.
