Gulab Phirni, crafted by Chef Farman Ali at Falak, The Leela Bhartiya City, is a luxurious take on the traditional Mughal dessert. Phirni, a chilled rice pudding, was introduced to India by the Mughals and traces its origins back to Persia. In this exquisite version, rose flavours are prominent, inspired by the legacy of Mughal Emperor Jahangir’s beloved wife, Noor Jahan, who popularised rose-scented desserts such as Gulab ki Phirni and Gulab ka Ittar (rose essence). Chef Farman Ali enhances the classic Phirni by infusing it with fragrant rose extract and topping it with dry fruits, a nod to Noor Jahan’s influence in incorporating nuts into both sweet and savoury Mughal dishes. This delicate, aromatic dessert is a celebration of Mughal culinary opulence, blending floral notes with creamy rice pudding.
