Indian Cuisine

Indian Cuisine is a huge collection of regional variations which can be broadly categorized by its states. Each state in India has its own style, taste and flavor of food. Each regional cuisine is very different from each other. This diversity in Indian food culture is because of the difference in climatic condition, terrain, soil nutrition, and diverse ethnic traditions. For example, the staple food of people from northern part of India is wheat where as it's rice in the southern part. In the desert state like Rajasthan availability of fresh vegetables is scarce, so the Rajasthani cuisine includes gram flour, milk and ghee as it's staple food ingredients. Thus each region or state in India has its unique cuisine.

So far, we have a very good collection of authentic regional Indian recipes. Below are some of the regional recipes for you to try. Make them and enjoy the diverse food of Indian cuisine.
