Who is the father of modern Indian Cuisine?

I credit Akbar the great,  where Mughalai Cuisine was born, to be the father of modern Indian Cuisine

Mughal empire lasted from 1526 AD to 1857 AD. Babur was the first Mughal emperor of India. He introduced a lots of fruits to India. Babar and Humayun introduced some of the Persian dishes specially Sharbat. During Akbar period (1556 AD) Akbar sets up a royal kitchen employing over 400 cooks including many Rajputs. It was this royal kitchen where Hindu cooks fused Persian and Hindustani cooking techniques, and ingredient to create new Royal dishes. These foods have come to be known as Mughalai Cuisine. Luckily for us, many of the recipes and available foods are documented in Ain-I-Akbar. The Mughalai cuisine peaked during Shahjahan. After Aurangzeb, various Nawab, Nizam, and Raja, would continue the practice and set up their own royal kitchens.

Babar planted fruits, Humayun introduced some Iranian dishes, but the fusion of Iran and Hindustan dishes did not start till Akbar. This fusion came to be known as Mughalai Cuisine.

Therefore, in my opinion Akbar was the father of modern Indian Cuisine. I have included some the recipes from Akbar period India Historical Recipes (Akbar period) and I have also interpreted some these recipes  India Historical Recipes Interpreted
