Punjabi Cuisine


Bread preparations


Punjabi breads are both flat (unleavened) breads as well as raised breads. The breads may be made of different types of flour and can be made in various ways:
  1. Baked in the tandoor like Naan, Tandoori roti, Kulcha, or Lachha Paratha
  2. Dry baked on the Tava (Indian griddle) like Phulka or Chapati, jowar ki roti, baajre ki roti and the very famous Makki ki roti (these are also smeared with white Butter)
  3. Shallow fried like Paratha, Keema Paratha, Potato or Radish Paratha
  4. Deep fried like Puri and Bhatoora (a fermented dough)
Naan is also very popular. It is served with most of the dishes made at an Indian restaurant.
