Origin

During the 17th century, in the Awadh state under the Mughals in Northern India, one of the members related to the Nawabs of Awadh held a competition for the local Khansamahs to prepare Kebabs as soft as possible to chew. One of the khansamah named Haji Murad Ali who was also 'Tunda' (one armed), prepared the dish with using at least 100 Indian and exotic spices including some aphrodisiacs. The Nawab found the kebabs so delicious, that he immediately declared Murad as the winner. Eventually the kebabs became so popular in Awadh and other Mughal courts that it came to be known as Tunday ke Kebab, literally meaning One armed man's Kebabs.[8]
