Punjab - Punjabi Cuisine

Punjab food or Panjabi khaana is a spicy and rich kind of food that came in the Multan and Punjab, which are regions in the northerns parts of the Indians continent located at in India, some part of Afghanistan and Pakistan. This cuisine has a rich tradition of many distinct and local ways of cooking.

Our restaurant features variety of food that would make you feel the authentic Punjabi delicacy. Here are today's special picks that you could try - 

1. Paneer Tikka

Also called 'chicken of the vegetarians', the paneer tikka has a special place in the food of Punjab. Chargrilled and spiced, this soft cottage cheese delicacy is the first to come to mind when one thinks of vegetarian appetisers. And frankly, any menu would be incomplete without it!

2. Rajma Chawal

It's a staple in every household in north India while also having a nostalgic connotation for most. Having rajma or chawal with anything apart from each other feels wrong, like breaking up your favourite couple. Even though it comes from Kashmir indigenously, it's a favourite among all Punjabis and their grandmothers. This Punjabi dish is also generally served with a side of pickled onions, to enhance the taste. To give it a slight twist, some people also add a little bit of crushed papad to their rajma chawal to give it a nice crunch.

3. Kada Prashad

This dish of the food of Punjab is one of the best things which you've ever tasted, especially on a cold morning in a Gurudwara. Made with equal portions of sooji or semolina, butter and sugar, it is a dish that screams love and affection, much like your mother does. The Golden Temple is the most famous for this, it is served up in all other gurdwaras as well as made in Punjabi households on special occasions. If you want to show someone you love them, make them a smattering of this indulgent halwa, a true labour of love!

4. Pinni

While eaten as a dessert, this is a dish mainly prepared in winter. It is made with desi ghee, wheat flour, jaggery and almonds - the ingredients give a lot of heat and energy during winter. While it is delicious, this dish from Punjab should be eaten in small quantities given the richness of it lest you fall sick! Some people don't even treat it as a dessert but take it to be just another nutritional supplement - just Punjabi things!

Hope you mouth is watering, and if you wish to try anyone of these dishes, immediately rush to our Delicacy & Delight Restaurant.

Thank you.
