Things like kabobs and chicken tikki masala are probably from the Mughals. It isn't really possible to prove, as the entire region shares very similar culinary traditions, and has for centuries if not millenia.

It is probable, though, that the majority of middle eastern foods and some European and southwestern Asian foods draw from Mughal influence. That basmati pilaf and tikki masala that you like so much from your local Indian joint?...most likely was developed at least in part by that empire.

The local culinary habits and techniques of that region were not documented until recently (past century or so). It used to be that the low class would be made to cook, and it was seen as a punishment or bottom level job by their society. It wasn't until the past couple centuries that their cuisine has been documented, refined, and turned into an art rather than a chore for the low class.
