Answer: A book of recipes painted during the reign of Nasir Shah Khalji
Nimatnama is a book of recipes and is considered the most representative example of the Sultanate School of Painting.

Nimatnama (Book of Delicacies) the most representative example of the Sultanate School of Painting was painted at Mandu during the reign of Nasir Shah Khalji (1500–1510 CE). It is a book of recipes with a section on hunting, and also has methods for preparation of medicines, cosmetics, perfumes and directions on their use.
