The Ni'matnama is a late fifteenth-century book of the recipes of
the eccentric Sultan of Mandu (Madhya Pradesh), Ghiyath Shahi,
collected and added to by his son and successor, Nasir Shah. It
contains recipes for cooking a variety of delicacies and epicurean
delights, as well as providing remedies and aphrodisiacs for the
Sultan and his court. It also includes important sections on the
preparation of betel leaves as well as advice on the logistics of
hunting expeditions and warfare. The text provides a remarkable and
tantalizing account of rarified courtly life in a fifteenth-century
Indian Sultanate region.
