Authentic Indian cuisine at New Bombay, BGC

Authentic Indian cuisine at New Bombay, BGC

Considering that Indian cuisine has always been cited as one of the most delicious in the world, it is a wonder that it is not listed among my favorites. I would probably blame it on a particularly spicy curry dish which was served to me when I was young, which then turned me off the entire culinary tradition for quite some time. Articles from various food mavens attribute the appeal of Indian…

hi jalebi

i am so frustrated with these uber-sanskari khushi’s in all the ipk fanfic like why can’t she say ch*tiya and eat mutton biryani and still believe in god and have traditional values

begging you to write something to fix this void

love

an admirer

Hi Admirer 👋

Hmm there’s a thin line between characteristics, character background and then using a character to peddle irritating “sanskaari” teachings.

Khushi, in the show and fics, falls into all three.

I find this ask a little funny because I am a vegetarian and I rarely swear.

And Khushi being a vegetarian and not swearing (in the show for that’s what I can speak for) really comes from her character background (as my friend has attested, the version of Lucknow and Lucknowi family we see is a romanticized version a non Lucknowi would have about the city - a city of poetry and passion, fantasy and fineries, cuisine and character).

While those tropes aren’t baseless - Khushi’s character background is limited to those tropes as opposed to building on it.

Khushi’s vegetarianism probably stems from her religion - the same reason why Arnav’s family is vegetarian as well (I personally do find it irritating that they had this whole yelling when Lavanya got a cake with egg. Chee.)

Also, Khushi might actually appreciate the cooking that goes into a kebab. Unlike Nani she doesn’t seem to maintain social distancing from non veg foods. Such as when Khushi excitedly talks about kebabs that’s cooked in her neighbouring cities back home when she’s try to butter up the waiter to give her and Arnav a table for their “date”.

You might be wondering why I’m writing this in detail and, oddly, defending Khushi because I do not think her being vegetarian, or not choosing to use cuss words is an issue.

These are characteristics. Like her being religious is a fact about her. She is meant to be the opposite of Arnav in every way - literally. Arnav is implied to drop “fuck” at the drop of the hat. Hence Khushi doesn’t swear. He is non vegetarian. She is vegetarian. Arnav wears western outfits with an allergy to ethnic ones, Khushi wears ethnic outfit with an allergy to western ones. Arnav’s language of choice is English. Khushi’s language of choice is Hindi.

And she’s supposed to be modesty in all form - from language to sex (which ofc she’s had none while Arnav does know the tango) and Arnav is temptation in all form (being unattainable is #1).

Now, the reason for my detailed explanation of all this is I think the issue with the show and consequently a set of fic writers is that they don’t show Khushi’s hypocrisy and judgemental attitude - which stems from her traditional upbringing - as wrong.

I don’t have an issue with characteristics and character background. But it is difficult to love a character who is intrusive, behaves like she’s 14, is extremely hypocritical, judgemental, straight up liar and has an extremely high moral superiority complex.

Yes, Arnav has a superiority complex on wealth - which is dutifully called out MULTIPLE times. Which is why fics get him to say sorry, many times, sometimes amazingly, sometimes terribly.

But Khushi’s moral hypocrisy? Never called out.

And the issue with that is that it codes Khushi’s behavior and judgements as correct. And as traits that don’t need a development. She is not written nor treated as someone who needs to unlearn the crap she’s been taught and get off her high horse of traditional values.

However, Khushi eating meat or cussing leads to making changes in the fundamental character itself. And ofc everyone’s entitled to making them. But it means she rebelled against her family - with whom she feels a certain obligatory sense for they adopted her. Doesn’t that change her equation with the family? If she cussed once at home, she would’ve been slapped by Buaji.

Thus Khushi’s behavior would be taken as a form of teen rebellion and one needs to think what triggered it? Her prankster-ness gets her in enough trouble - but it’s also her being loved by Shashi and Payal.

Also Khushi’s 18/19 and extremely sheltered - she hasn’t even had a chance to explore world and get influenced by it.

She does get influenced by Arnav though - she picks up a lot of his English.

I reckon once she’s older she would actually pick up saying “fuck” over “Chutiya”

On a side note, I could legit write her cussing and eating meat and still being just as irritating because I’m changing habits, not working on her personality.

Also food and language have little association to religion. Of course the world doesn’t see it that way. But I don’t think anything is mutually exclusive when it comes to belief and values.

I totally do support the representation of meat eating cussing traditional devout people - lol my dearest aunt was one.

The question is, is Khushi the right character to represent that before she becomes - just a different character?

In an AU - khushi could totally be that. Heck I’ve written the most bizarre stuff lol 😂

:) lots of love,

- Jalebi

[androgynous-bhajipav]

what are some of your favorite indian dishes? i'm trying to expand my pallet and i think a great way to do that would be trying foods from other cultures :)

hello anon! this is going to be a long answer :)

Edit: I realise now that I should've probably organized this better.

Edit2: I'm obsessing a lot over this aren't I?

so I'm VERY fond of pav bhaji, if that wasn't already obvious 🤭. Pav is a sort of bread and bhaji literally translates to vegetable. The vegetable curry we use in this dish particularly is a deep red-orange colour and is medium spicy (though that depends, I guess). Pav bhaji is a main course dish but some of my friends eat it as a quick snack as well. You can add cheese to your bhaji if you wish.

Next, I LOVE biryani. It's basically fried or roasted rice with an abundance of flavour. Historically, it used to be served to the sultan and the nobility at feasts and holy fuck, it sure is a feast! Each region of India has their own variant and the most popular one is the Hyderabadi biryani. Now, I quite prefer chicken or mutton biryani but paneer or cottage cheese is a nice alternative for vegetarians.

Next, I believe no one could ever dislike chole bhature. The bhature are these huge deep-friend circular breads (but very different compared to pav). The chole are spicy chickpeas. The dish is more popular in the northern half of the country and typically eaten as breakfast over there. I'm a mere mortal though, so I eat it at lunchtime.

You've probably already tried butter chicken and some of my classmates think it's overhyped but I love it very much (only the kind my grandmother makes though).

I would say momos fall into Nepali or Tibetan cuisine but some of my friends ADORE them. They're basically dumplings but I've heard they can also be cooked as soup versions??

Now I'm going to name a few other dishes that I think you should try:

Vindaloo (curry- kinda spicy though)

Xacuti (with rice or Goan bread called poi)

Palak paneer (pureed spinach with cottage cheese cubes)

BONUS: Solkadhi: a pretty pink-coloured drink (made from coconut milk and dried kokum skins) very demure.

yesterday i had biryani [mutton obvi] and it was awesome but I could barely eat anything for some reason even though I ate just one slice of cake and four pieces of pizza all day

i love biryani but it's so spicy usually

aw that sucks :((((

[strangerindunya403]

What’s your favorite Pakistani dishes and favorite “foreign” dishes?

Dishes like chicken and mutton biryani, nihari , Chapli kebab, palaw, cholay chicken , butter chicken for Pakistani dishes and other foreign dishes I like are shawarma, maqluba, dolma, mandi, baklava, tacos and many more . I’m not a picky eater , I love all type and like to eat other culture food but for sure desi food with its spices hits differently as I’m used to it the most.

THE SOUTH INDIAN FOODS

The South Indian states of Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Karnataka each have their own variants of common dishes as well as regional specialties. For an introduction to South Indian cuisine, here are 10 dishes to look out for.

1. Dosas: paper-thin crepes

A traditional breakfast food made of fermented rice-and-lentil batter, a dosa is much like a crispy thin crepe. It’s accompanied by sambar (a hot lentil soup) and coconut chutney.

Masala dosas are stuffed with a spicy mash of potato and onion; plain dosas are hollow; rava dosas are made from semolina; and some new-age variants get creative with fillings such as cottage cheese or mixed vegetables.

Whatever you choose (trust us and start with a masala dosa), the delightfully light dish is best eaten hot, when it’s fresh off the griddle.

2. Idlis: steamed rice cakes

Soft, fluffy and ivory-coloured, idlis are what many South Indian families eat for breakfast. A fermented lentil-and rice-batter is steamed in little circular moulds, and the resulting spherical rice cakes are served with sambar and chutneys.

Idlis are light and mild tasting, an ideal snack for when you want to give your stomach a rest from fiery flavours.

3. Vadas: savoury doughnuts

What’s that doughnut-like thing doing on your South Indian breakfast thali (platter)? While a vada won’t cure your sugar cravings, it will satiate your desire for something deep fried, hot and crispy.

Made from a batter of black lentils, gently spiced with peppercorns, curry leaves, cumin, chilli and onion, this crunchy fritter tastes best when smeared generously with coconut chutney.

4. Uttapams: pizza-pancake hybrids

Is it a pancake? Is it a pizza? No, it’s an uttapam. A batter of fermented rice and lentils is ladled on to a griddle. Chopped tomato, onion, chillies, carrot, coconut and other toppings are then sprinkled on. The result is a fluffy, porous, delicious uttapam, softer than a dosa, and tastes great with chutneys or without.

9. Biryani: something like pilaf

The ubiquitous biryani is found in different forms all over India, changing in flavour and preparation style according to regional influences.

Biryani is essentially a dish of rice cooked with meat, veggies and spices such as turmeric, cardamom, bay leaves, cinnamon, cloves, and pepper; sometimes garnished with cashews, raisins and caramelized onions. It can be vegetarian or have meats such as chicken, mutton or beef.

© highviews/Shutterstock

While there is no single South Indian-style biryani, you’ll find different varieties such as Hyderabadidum biryani, Kerala-style Malabar or Thalasserybiryani, the coastal Karnataka variant of Bhatkalibiryani, Tamil Nadu’s Dinidgulbiryani and so on.

Reasons why biryani became the most ordered dish

Biryani and India, a match made in heaven. At a glance, this statement may seem a bit over the top, but when you consider some data, this will start to make sense. According to the stats released by the topmost online food ordering apps, biryani is the most-ordered food in India. As per the data published by Swiggy, in 2022, 2.28 biriyanis were ordered every second. Also, the data from Zomato reveals that 186 biriyanis are delivered every minute across the country.

So, what is the reason behind this hysteria? Well, let us take a look!

Reasons behind the popularity of biryani

Apart from the fact that you can easily order biryani online, these are some of the reasons why this rice-based dish has captured the imagination of people:

A complete meal

Biryani as a dish is a complete meal in itself. It has rice which is steamed with meat (either mutton or chicken) or cooked in Dum style. It is lip-smacking and finger-licking good. Not just this, it has got all the essential nutrients in one plate, i.e. proteins and carbohydrates. So, it is not very farfetched to claim that it is a complete meal in itself.

Huge range

In India, there is a whole range of biryani. Based on the meat, there is a different categorization. Based on the type of rice used, there are different versions. Some restaurants make vegetarian biryani as well. However, there is a long-standing debate. Without meat, biryani nerds do not consider it to be in the league. They call it pulao.

Moreover, there are multiple iterations of the dish depending on the location they are from. There is the Hyderabadi variation which is considered to be the top one. Then, there is Lucknowi one which is considered a close second. Next up is the famous biryani of Kolkata which has potatoes in it and brings a completely different palate to the table. There are Bohri, Sindhi, Afghani, Punjabi, Memoni, Malabar, Mughlai, Dindigul, Sri Lankan, Dan Pauk, and Nasi Kebuli versions too. And, each one has a distinctive taste.  

●       Easily available

There is the availability of biryani online. But, this can be considered an understatement because there is a lot of it and the stats mentioned above further strengthens the narrative. All credit goes to the great restaurants and chefs who put in their toil and expertise in creating this perfect standalone dish that can be had all alone. You will find it on every Indian food delivery app that is there in the market. All you need to do is place an order, which will be at your home soon.

●       A lot of emotions are attached to it

The aromatic biryani has a lot of emotions and nostalgia attached to it. Since it is a complete dish with all the nutrition packed, it has been served on birthdays, family get-togethers, and on almost every occasion in Indian households. In India, many weddings are not considered complete without this exemplary dish. The love for biryanis runs deep in our veins.  

We have spoken a lot about the great biryani that you can eat. But, if you want to enjoy it in the comfort of your home, then you need to order biryani online. Where should you order it from? If you want to enjoy the classic recipe, then there is no beating Biryani By Kilo. You will find a fantastic range of biryanis at unbeatable prices. So, do not wait and order immediately.

Which Cut Is Best for Mutton Biryani?

The cut of meat used in mutton biryani can greatly influence the dish’s overall taste and texture. Here are some of the best cuts for making a flavorful mutton biryani:

Lamb Shoulder: The lamb shoulder is an excellent choice for biryani due to its balance of meat and fat. This cut becomes tender and flavorful when slow-cooked, making it ideal for biryani. The marbling of fat in the shoulder cut ensures that the mutton remains juicy and flavorful throughout the cooking process. It’s a popular choice among chefs and home cooks alike for achieving a rich and satisfying biryani.

Lamb Leg: Another great cut for biryani is the lamb leg, which offers leaner meat compared to the shoulder. While it is less fatty, it remains tender and juicy when properly cooked. The lamb leg is a good option for those who prefer a leaner cut of meat without sacrificing flavor. It works well in biryani, especially when marinated and slow-cooked to allow the flavors to develop.

Mutton Ribs: Mutton ribs are a flavorful option that adds richness to the biryani. The higher fat content in the ribs imparts a deeper, more robust flavor to the dish. This cut is perfect for those who enjoy a richer taste and a slightly fattier texture in their biryani. The bones also contribute to the overall depth of flavor, making mutton ribs a popular choice for traditional biryani recipes.

Choosing the right cut of meat can elevate your mutton biryani, enhancing both its flavor and texture. Experimenting with different cuts can help you find the perfect balance for your ideal biryani.

    This restaurant included in thalassery biriyani    A well-known meal from Kerala, India's Malabar area is thalassery biryani. It's renowned for having complex flavors and a distinct preparation method. Little chunks of marinated chicken or mutton are typically cooked with aromatic rice, spices like cinnamon, cloves, and bay leaves, while cashew nuts, raisins, and caramelized onions are frequently added for extra richness and texture. Typically, it is eaten with pickles or raita, a type of yogurt salad. The use of a unique rice variety (often Kaima rice) and the cooking technique, which entails stacking and slow-cooking to perfectly marry the flavors, set Thalassery biryani apart from other biryanis. It's an absolute must-try for anyone discovering Kerala's delicious food!

    A tasty take on the traditional Thalassery biryani, Thalassery dum biryani is well-known for its unique flavors and preparation method. This is the usual method for preparing it:

1. Marination: Combine yogurt, turmeric, red chili powder, ginger-garlic paste, and salt to marinate chicken or mutton pieces. To allow the flavors to seep in, let it marinade for at least one or two hours.

2. Rice Preparation : Boil Basmati rice and reserve. When the rice is cooking, entire spices like cardamom, cloves, cinnamon, and bay leaves are frequently added to flavor it.

3. Layering and Dum Cooking: Alternately stack the marinated meat and half cooked rice in a heavy-bottomed container (often a handi or deep pan). Fried onions, mint leaves, cilantro, and ghee (clarified butter) may also be added to each layer.

4.  Sealing: Once all layers are assembled, seal the vessel with a tight-fitting lid or use dough to create a seal around the edges of the vessel. This helps in trapping the steam and flavors within, allowing for a slow-cooking process known as dum cooking. Final Touches: Once cooked, gently fluff up the layers with a fork, ensuring the rice and meat are evenly mixed. Garnish with fried onions, cilantro, and a squeeze of lemon juice before serving.

THALASSERY DUM BIRIYANI

Thalassery dum biryani is typically served hot with accompaniments like raita, pickle, and salad. It's known for its aromatic flavors and tender meat, making it a favorite among biryani lovers.

5. Cooking: Place the sealed vessel on low heat or in an oven and let it cook slowly for about 30-40 minutes. This slow-cooking process allows the meat and rice to absorb all the flavors from the spices and aromatics.

western media never fucking represents me :(

I just want brown girls to be vampires :( I want them to have magical diaries and cats that talk :(

I want brown guys to be spies, I want them to not have a godawful 'Indian' accent :( I want them to be main characters, not the side guy that hooks the protag up with a nuke that they got from the ISIS :(

I want them to go home to their siblings and parents and ask whether there's biryani or mutton plou for khana. Try them hanging out with some different friends and accidentally biting into a jelly with pork gelatin.

I want them to have personalities other than their ethnicity or religion. I want Muslims to be painted in a good light, for once not the oppressive light it's currently in. I want them to show the unity in the South between Christians and Muslims.

Give me queer brown people! Give me family struggles, evil dictatorships, and rebellion, and I will eat it up!!

The protagonist from the indie game Elevator Hitch is the most I've ever felt represented, even though he's a 25-year-old with an office job and he's American (probably). He's just brown, quick thinking, has chunky glasses and doesn't give a shit, but everytime I see art of him or maybe an analysis of him I can't help but think, 'Jesus, he's literally me.'

Nothing I've ever seen on TV has ever made me feel like that.
