Indian cooking has unconventional style of making or cooking things which make them unique and it has its own cooking techniques, methods and equipments. Various cooking techniques are:
Tadka (tempering): it is the most common way of cooking. It essentially means frying whole spices in a little amount of different oil, ghee or butter. It is the aroma released from the spices which give the unique flavor or taste to the main dish which is being cooked, be it vegetables,dals,legumes,cereals or sometimes chicken,meat,fish etc. A tadka commonly has mustard or cumin seeds in oil.
Bhuna (curry): This is way of cooking curries. Here the spices are fried or dry roasted to form a paste. Curries which are served in thick spiced sauce form are made using the Bhuna style.

It has some variations depending upon what all spices are added in or is there water or milk or curd or yoghurt added to make it in a gravy form.
• Dum (steaming over coal): It is a process of steaming food but without using the actual appliances. A virtual compression is made in the cooking pot.

Another famous item of this region is the sweetened coconut milk. Yet another dish is Puttu, which is glutinous rice powder steamed like a pudding in a bamboo shoot.
Snacks and Drinks The Indian snacks not only tempt Indians but they also tempt the non-Indians. The delicious snacks can be prepared as salty, sweet or spicy or oily dishes. Pav bhaji is one of the popular Indian snacks. Here slice of bread is served with mashed and fried vegetables. The pani puri perhaps hits the top position among snacks served in India. It is liked by youngsters as well as elderly people. The puffed and hollow bread is stuffed with spicy potato and onion and served with tamarind water. A shot of lime juice, cumin powder, paprika, roasted nuts enhance the taste of the pani puris. Some more mouthing tempting snacks are like pakoras, samosas, jalebi dhokla, bhelpuri, mattra kulcha etc. Tea is the most popular drink in India. It is prepared with milk, sugar and aromatic tea leaves. At different parts of India, tea is boiled with clove, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cardamom to enhance the rich taste. Lassi is another Indian drink made from buttermilk or sweetened yogurt. The drink is sometimes flavored with rose syrup and mango juice. More drinks like nimbu pani, thandai, rassam etc.

(at this point you can make this a mixed bhaji by adding a cup of chickpeas to the mixture) If not, add 1 cup of coconut milk and bring it to a simmer on a low flame. Add the sweet potato and salt to taste. 
Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the gravy reaches the desired consistancy. Serve hot with rice or Poi (Goan bread). You can also use potatos or yam.
9. PRAWN WITH OKHRA
Tumblr media
Heat 4 tbsps of oil in a kadai, and fry 1 finely chopped medium sized onion until it turns pink. 
Add 250 grams each of the prawns (cleaned and deveined) and the okhra (lady’s fingers) and sautee for about a minute. 
Add 2 to 3 tbsps of the Soongta Hooman masala along with a cup of thick coconut milk. 
Stir well. Add salt to taste and cook until the prawns and the okhra are done––the prawns should not be overcooked––and the gravy reaches the desired consistency. 
Garnish with chopped coriander leaves or mint leaves and serve hot with steamed rice or poi (Goan Bread). A variation on this is substituting okhra with white radish.

Five of Our Best Culinary Experiences (Pan India)
By Jaimin Rajani, Devansh Karnani
It has been over three years since our last blog post. So first things first. Let us try to win back your confidence. Neither of us is a vegan and we hate it when a place serves a sweet dish in the name of sambhar. So you can trust us.
We're not easily pleased, but here's Fab Five - a list of five of our best culinary experiences across the country (not in order of ranking) that blew us away.
Note that all we care about is food and the consistency. So most of these recommendations are no frills eateries. Don't expect them to be chic.
Dorabjee & Sons, Pune
Tumblr media
A couple of dozens of visits and not once has this 142 year-old iconic restaurant in Poona's Sharbat Wala Chowk disappointed us. Folks at Dorabjee & Sons seem to have mastered the art of Parsi Cooking. Hence, the Bawa fare here is as incredible as it can possibly get, and paired with its clean homelike atmosphere, pocket-friendliness, world-class hospitality, it is likely to enslave you.
Must try: Salli Boti, Dhansak (available only on Sundays), Rasberry Soda and Lagan nu Custard
Kasturi, Kolkata
Tumblr media
Often mistaken as Bengali food, Kasturi in Calcutta is known for its Dhakai offerings (from East Bengal / Bangladesh). Conveniently known to be the spicier counterpart of Bengali cuisine, nearly everything they dish up is phenomenal. But what's best of the best is their Daab Chingri (Jumbo prawn in mustard infused coconut milk served in a coconut shell paired with steamed rice), which is truly a work of art with its flawless balance of flavours coming from very challenging ingredients. This delicacy is sophistication at its best and just when you think it can't get any better, squeeze in a generous amount of Gondhoraj lime juice (a local variant of lemon) for an unforgettable experience.
Must try: Kochu pata Chingri, Shorshe Bhetki, Doi Maachh, Begun Bhaja
Giri Manja's, Mangalore
Tumblr media
Despite its iconic status, this seafood joint in Mangalore seems like a hole in the wall kind of place and can be tricky to locate. But once you get there, boy it's worth it (and a lot more). Their patrons come for the freshest spice-punched seafood prepared in authentic style with rustic flavours and quick service.
Must try: Pomfret Masala Fry, Anjal Tawa Fry, Prawns in Asofetida Curry, Chilli Squid, Prawns in Black Pepper Curry(Sorry for not remembering the local names of the dishes)
Rajinder Da Dhaba, Delhi
Tumblr media
While no description can do justice to this legendary establishment, we shall give it a shot anyway. This takeaway-only joint in Safdarjung caters to a long list of veteran sharabi kebabis of Delhi. Rajinder does its own version of the quintessential Mughlai Kebabs and curries which are served in paper plates - take it or leave it. But if you're too posh for this unique, roadside dhaba experience that makes for an ideal end to a car-o-bar session, they also have an air-conditioned restaurant that serves food from the dhaba at thrice the cost.
Must Try: Galauti Kebab, Chicken Curry, Chicken Malai Kebab, Butter Chicken
Mocambo, Kolkata
Tumblr media
A supposedly customary visit to this landmark restaurant in Calcutta's entertainment quarter is as close to time-travel as it can get.The food at Mocambo makes for a cuisine in itself. Mocambo's overwhelmingly romantic decor, as if right out of the sets of Mad Men, comprising individual overhead lamps for each table, outdated German silver beer mugs and waiters clad in unfashionable uniforms, make British Raj look desirable.
Must try: Spicy Tuna Dip on Toast, Deviled Crabs, Chicken Paprika, Fish Diana, Angels on Horse's Back
Cheers & Bon Appétit.
Tumblr media
Everyone is entitled to an opinion about food except those who crave bhajiyas 5 seconds through a downpour.*

Pumpkin Flowers
A customary visit to my parent’s place in the sleepy town is a bittersweet memory. The initial few days of excitement of my trip wore off pretty soon after the ritualistic visits to the relatives, that included the dilapidated maternal grand house. Every family you visit, would serve a table full of food, sometimes home cooked or even store bought. As if each house was trying to mask a sadness behind the plates of greasy snacks they laid out. But back at home it would be a sombre cloud of grey. My parents with each of their smartphones, anxiously and absentmindedly scrolling through, sharing inane forwards with the same circle of people. The days were silent. The evenings were sad. The nights were endless. Ending the trip every time with a heavy and helpless heart, questioning myself of how I could make them happy. What could one do? Not getting a response from within, I started to reduce my number of days I spent there. Two weeks became ten days, ten became nine till we were only left with a couple of days.
The high point though, was always the lunch. My mother, like every mother in the world, was the greatest cook of all time. Initial days of every visit would revolve around favourite foods enthusiastically cooked up by Mama while Papa displayed almost a competitive eagerness to find the right produce from the haat across the street from the house. On the special days, where we could bring in meat into the house, were Wednesday, Friday and weekend, would normally be a glorious affair of  freshwater fish, rohu, catla or prawns. On Monday, Tuesday and Thursday, however, my mother regimented a traditional vegetarian meal, guided by her Gods for years. On these days, my father would bring in a bouquet of fresh blooms of pumpkin flowers. Which my mother would batter up with gram flour, rice flour, and some spices and shallow fry them on her forty year old cast iron tawa, dowsing with oil so that they don't stick to the pan. She would insist on frying these, when we are on the lunch table so that they are the hottest and the crispiest version of themselves. Served on the side of steaming hot gobindbhog rice, yellow tempered dal and a stir-fry of some green, like spinach or red amaranthus were these pumpkin flower fritters. Young and freshly plucked, the most authentic version of “farm to table”as we now call these, justified by the right amount of batter, spices and cooked with extreme thoughtfulness and love. In this moment, life felt normal. Happy. With a beaming soft sunlight streaming into our hearts bouncing off of our plates, gave us hope that things will be alright.
I have never attempted to make these and my mother never really told me exactly what she put in the batter and how she would create something so magical out of such an unassuming ingredient. She kept it a secret, like many of her other recipes. I guess we will never know now.
