Born in Almora and brought up in Rishikesh, chef Jeewan specialises in Indian cuisine and prepares some of the most mouth-watering delicacies including the succulent Nalli Nihari and the fragrant Nargisi Kofta Curry. Combing his expertise and creativity, Jeewan’s signature dish is the popular Martaban Gosht, which is lamb cooked in spices and red chilli. The dish derives its name from the glazed earthenware container it is served in, called Martaban, which is used for storing pickle in almost all North Indian homes.
