Plan a tour to India. Even if you are
not in a mood to do so just to enjoy the mouthwatering spicy snacks of India.
These spices add tangy and delicious flavors to the food and for this reason
India is also called land of spices. The most famous snacks are samosa,
tikki-chaat, paneer pakoda, bhelpuri, paobhaji, jahlmoodhi, chhole bature,
dosa, dahi vada and more. The sinful desserts of India include Rosogulla,
Gulab Jamun, Jalebi, ghevar, barfi, kalakand, petha, peda, motichoor ke ladoo
etc. Milk, cream, Khoya and sugar, cardamom Main course famous foods can be
broadly categorized into two parts viz., Veg and non-veg. Veg may include
paneer, mix vegetables, dal, naan, roti, poori, paratha, dhokla, etc. Non veg
includes hyderabadi dum biryani, chikan tikka, fish curry, mutton rogan josh,
kebab, continental foods, fish fried, tandoori chicken, butter chicken, beef
roast and parotta etc. I would like to introduce
some of the tastiest dishes of india:
Hyderabadi
dum Biryani (Andhra Pradesh)
It's the perfect choice for foodies who prefer having their rice with spice, interspersed with tender pieces of meat or chicken. Cooked in 'dum style', it's layered with fried onions and mint, served with a cold raita.
Dhokla (Gujarat)
This steamed cake made from gram flour
and channa dal is one of the best things to come out of Gujarat.
Idly and Sambhar (south
Indian)
This glorious steamed rice pancake with
innumerable health benefits has made its way through generations. Idlis are
about 2-3 inch wide, fluffy and can be relished for breakfast, lunch, snacks or
dinner along with some finely ground coconut chutney and a hot steaming bowl
of sambhar.
Beef roast and porotta (Kerala)
Beef roast is something you
mustn’t miss, but not many tourists who go to Kerala try out beef specialties. This
dish made of cubed beef in a thick onion and tomato gravy is best had with
porotta, a soft layered bread. Down it with some suleimani chai and then
siesta!
Undhiyo (Gujarat)
Undhiyo is a beautiful
mix of flavors as it is seasonal vegetables in herbs and spices. This is a
typically winter preparation in Gujarat. The variety of vegetables and flavors
of various spices will leave you feeling happy and satiated. Best had with fresh
puris or deep fried Indian bread.
Macher jhol (Bengali)
Every fish lover
simply has to try macher jhol or fish in tangy tomato based gravy. Tempered in
mustard and cumin seeds, lends good blend of flavors to sweet river fish. Try
it with steamed rice.
Butter chicken
Chunks of chicken marinated overnight
in yogurt and a beautiful mix of spices, served with a dollop of melting cream
or butter on top.
