Hyderabadi Marag

A clear, richly flavoured mutton leg and bone-marrow broth slow-simmered for hours with whole spices, onion, coriander, and milk — the Hyderabadi winter soup-stew served at weddings and Eid gatherings. Marag is defined by its silky, gelatinous mouthfeel from dissolved collagen and marrow, and its gentle white pepper heat rather than red chilli fire.
