Palak Pulao Recipe | Spinach Pulao | Spinach Rice Recipe Indian Style

[i-cant-sing]

What's your favorite food you ate with your Muslim neighbors?

I'm genuinely curious

I CANT PICK OMGGGG THATS UNFAIR😭😭😭 But heres my top favs:

Literally any spinach dish she makes: palak paneer (spinach and cottage cheese), palak gosht (spinach and meat), aloo palak (potatoes and spinach). She ALWAYS keeps a batch of spinach frozen at home so that she can make it for me like 3 times a month.

Omg omg I love rice dishes but the way she makes pulao (or pilaf, basically rice made in mutton/lamb/meat stock with meats AND sometimes with cashews and raisins and carrots AND EVERYTHING GOOD)

When I was young, she'd make me these shaami kebab sandwiches while I'd play with her sons, aka my bffs and also my brothers. These sandwiches are just like- a core childhood memory.

AND ON SUNDAYS, they always make halwa puri (just Google it) and its so good with potato and chickpea curries😭😭😭😭

For healthy sweets, the uncle would give me this homemade Greek yogurt with sugar mixed in it, and yall it hit the spot everytime😭😭

Yall gonna judge me for this but idc, but any dish she makes that has bone marrow in it- immeadiate winner. But dw, I don't suck the bone until the marrow hits the back of my throat- no, no. They have special utensils just to retrieve that marrow.

Okay but the neighbours sons were so mean to little ole me😭😭 they'd make me do those gol gappa competitions until my stomach was literally cramping but omg was the pain worth it? YES, THE ABSOLUTE BURST OF FLAVOURSSS

Another core childhood memory of mine is me sitting in their kitchen, watching the aunty make food while she gave me a bowl of lentils and rice, a little pickle on the side. She's rolling out the rotis, I'm sitting beside her and watching her sons play wrestle mania in the lounge and she didn't allow me to wrestle with them because she doesn't want me to get hurt🥺🥺🥺🥺

If I ever win any awards in my life, my neighbours for sure would be mentioned in my speech AND also be invited to come with me to the red carpet. They've given me so many precious memories and good lessons, idk how I'll live without them ever🥺🥺🥺

ABOUT INDIAN FOOD in USA

You will get know more about the best restaurants Around the world

INDIAN FOOD consists of a variety of regional and traditional cuisines native to India. Given the diversity in soil, climate, culture, ethnic groups, and occupations, these cuisines vary substantially and use locally available spices, herbs, vegetables, and fruits.

Indian food is also heavily influenced by religion, in particular Hinduism and Islam, cultural choices.

Historical events such as invasions, trade relations, and colonialism have played a role in introducing certain foods to this country. The Columbian discovery of the New World brought a number of new vegetables and fruit to India. A number of these such as potatoes, tomatoes, chillies, peanuts, and guava have become staples in many regions of India.

INDIAN FOOD has shaped the history of international relations; the spice trade between India and Europe was the primary catalyst for Europe's Age of Discovery.

Spices were bought from India and traded around Europe and Asia. INDIAN FOOD has influenced other cuisines across the world, especially those from Europe (especially Britain), the Middle East, Southern African, East Africa, Southeast Asia, North America, Mauritius, Fiji, Oceania, and the Caribbean.

HISTORY OF INDIAN FOOD NON-VEGETARIAN

INDIAN FOOD reflects an 8,000-year history of various groups and cultures interacting with the Indian subcontinent, leading to a diversity of flavors and regional cuisines found in modern-day India. Later, trade with British and Portuguese influence added to the already diverse INDIAN FOOD.

After 9000 BCE, the first period of indirect contact between the Fertile Crescent and Indus Valley civilizations seems to have occurred due to the Neolithic Revolution and the diffusion of agriculture. Around 7000 BCE, agriculture spread from the Fertile Crescent to the Indus Valley, and wheat and barley began to be grown. Sesame and humped cattle were domesticated in the local farming communities.

 Mehrgarh is one of South Asia's earliest sites with evidence of farming and herding. From circa 4500 to 1900 BC the rulers of Lower Mesopotamia were Sumerians who spoke a non-Indo-European and non-Semitic language, may have initially come from India and may have been related to the original Dravidian population of India.

By 3000 BCE, turmeric, cardamom, black pepper and mustard were harvested in India.

From Around 2350 BCE the evidence for imports from the Indus to Ur in Mesopotamia have been found, as well as Clove heads which are thought to originate from the Moluccas in Maritime Southeast Asia were found in a 2nd millennium BC site in Terqa. Akkadian Empire records mention timber, carnelian and ivory as being imported from Meluhha by Meluhhan ships, Meluhha being generally considered as the Mesopotamian name for the Indus Valley Civilization.

VEDIC AGE

VEGETARIAN

The ancient Hindu text Mahabharata mentions rice and vegetable cooked together, and the word "pulao" or "pallao" is used to refer to the dish in ancient Sanskrit works, such as Yājñavalkya Smṛti. Ayurveda, ancient Indian system of wellness, deals with holistic approach to the wellness, and it includes food, dhyana (meditation) and yoga.

ANTIQUITY

Early diet in India mainly consisted of legumes, vegetables, fruits, grains, dairy products, and honey.

Staple foods eaten today include a variety of lentils (dal), whole-wheat flour (aṭṭa), rice, and pearl millet (bājra), which has been cultivated in the Indian subcontinent since 6200 BCE.

Over time, segments of the population embraced vegetarianism during the Śramaṇa movement while an equitable climate permitted a variety of fruits, vegetables, and grains to be grown throughout the year.

A food classification system that categorised any item as saatvic, raajsic, or taamsic developed in Yoga tradition. The Bhagavad Gita proscribes certain dietary practices.

Consumption of beef is taboo, due to cows being considered sacred in Hinduism.[14] Beef is generally not eaten by Hindus in India except for Kerala, parts of southern Tamil Nadu and the north-east.

PICKLES

FOOD MENTIONED IN ANECIENT INDIAN SCRIPTURE

While many ancient Indian recipes have been lost in history, one can look at ancient texts to see what was eaten in ancient and pre-historic India.

Barley—(known as Yava in both Vedic and Classical Sanskrit) is mentioned many times in Rigveda and other Indian scriptures as one of the principal grains in ancient India

Betel leaf—primary use is as a wrapper for the chewing of areca nut or tobacco, where it is mainly used to add flavour; may also be used in cooking, usually raw, for its peppery taste

Breadfruit—fritters called jeev kadge phodi in Konkani or kadachakka varuthath in Malayalam are a local delicacy in coastal Karnataka and Kerala

Chickpeas—popular dishes are made with chickpea flour, such as mirchi bajji and mirapakaya bajji

Curd—a traditional yogurt or fermented milk product, originating from the Indian subcontinent, usually prepared from cow's milk, and sometimes buffalo milk, or goat milk

Figs —cultivated from Afghanistan to Portugal, also grown in Pithoragarh in the Kumaon hills of India; from the 15th century onwards, also grown in areas including Northern Europe and the New World

Ghee—a class of clarified butter that originated in ancient India, commonly used in the Indian subcontinent, Middle-Eastern cuisine, traditional medicine, and religious rituals

Grape wine —first-known mention of grape-based wines in India is from the late 4th-century BC writings of Chanakya

Honey —the spiritual and supposed therapeutic use of honey in ancient India was documented in both the Vedas and the Ayurveda texts

Mango—the Jain goddess Ambika is traditionally represented as sitting under a mango tree

Mustard —brown mustard is a spice that was cultivated in the Indus Valley civilization and is one of the important spices used in the Indian subcontinent today

Pomegranate—in some Hindu traditions, the pomegranate (Hindi: anār) symbolizes prosperity and fertility, and is associated with both Bhoomidevi (the earth goddess) and Lord Ganesha (the one fond of the many-seeded fruit)

Rice—cultivated in the Indian subcontinent from as early as 5,000 BC

Rice cake—quite a variety are available

Rose apple—mainly eaten as a fruit and also used to make pickles (chambakka achar)

Saffron —almost all saffron grows in a belt from Spain in the west to Kashmir in the east

Salt —considered to be a very auspicious substance in Hinduism and is used in particular religious ceremonies like house-warmings and weddings; in Jainism, devotees lay an offering of raw rice with a pinch of salt before a deity to signify their devotion, and salt is sprinkled on a person's cremated remains before the ashes are buried

Sesame oil —popular in Asia, especially in Korea, China, and the South Indian states of Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, and Tamil Nadu, where its widespread use is similar to that of olive oil in the Mediterranean

Sorghum—commonly called jwaarie, jowar, jola, or jondhalaa, sorghum is one of the staple sources of nutrition

Sugar—produced in the Indian subcontinent since ancient times, its cultivation spread from there into modern-day Afghanistan through the Khyber Pass

Sugarcane—the earliest known production of crystalline sugar began in northern India; the earliest evidence of sugar production comes from ancient Sanskrit and Pali texts

Turmeric —used widely as a spice in South Asian and Middle Eastern cooking

Middle Ages to the 16th Century

VEG DUM BIRYANI

During the Middle Ages, several Indian dynasties were predominant, including the Gupta dynasty. Travel to India during this time introduced new cooking methods and products to the region, including tea.

India was later invaded by tribes from Central Asian cultures, which led to the emergence of Mughlai cuisine, a mix of Indian and Central Asian cuisine. Hallmarks include seasonings such as saffron.

Colonial Period

The Portuguese and British during their rule introduced cooking techniques such as baking, and foods from the New World and Europe.

The new-world vegetables popular in cuisine from the Indian subcontinent include tomato, potato, sweet potatoes, peanuts, squash, and chilli. Most New World vegetables such as sweet potatoes, potatoes, Amaranth, peanuts and cassava based Sago are allowed on Hindu fasting days. Cauliflower was introduced by the British in 1822. In the late 18th/early 19th century, an autobiography of a Scottish Robert Lindsay mentions a Sylheti man called Saeed Ullah cooking a curry for Lindsay's family. This is possibly the oldest record of INDIAN FOOD in the United Kingdom.

INGREDIENTS

Staple foods of INDIAN FOOD include pearl millet (bājra), rice, whole-wheat flour (aṭṭa), and a variety of lentils, such as masoor (most often red lentils), tuer (pigeon peas), urad (black gram), and moong (mung beans). Lentils may be used whole, dehusked—for example, dhuli moong or dhuli urad—or split. Split lentils, or dal, are used extensively, Some pulses, such as channa or cholae (chickpeas), rajma (kidney beans), and lobiya (black-eyed peas) are very common, especially in the northern regions. Channa and moong are also processed into flour (besan).

Many Indian dishes are cooked in vegetable oil, but peanut oil is popular in northern and western India, mustard oil in eastern India, and coconut oil along the western coast, especially in Kerala and parts of southern Tamil Nadu, Gingelly (sesame) oil is common in the south since it imparts a fragrant, nutty aroma.

In recent decades, sunflower, safflower, cottonseed, and soybean oils have become popular across India, Hydrogenated vegetable oil, known as Vanaspati ghee, is another popular cooking medium, Butter-based ghee, or deshi ghee, is used commonly.

Many types of meat are used for Indian cooking, but chicken and mutton tend to be the most commonly consumed meats. Fish and beef consumption are prevalent in some parts of India, but they are not widely consumed except for coastal areas, as well as the north east.

The most important and frequently used spices and flavourings in INDIAN FOOD are whole or powdered chilli pepper (mirch, introduced by the Portuguese from Mexico in the 16th century), black mustard seed (sarso), cardamom (elaichi), cumin (jeera), turmeric (haldi), asafoetida (hing), ginger (adrak), coriander (dhania), and garlic (lasoon).

One popular spice mix is garam masala, a powder that typically includes seven dried spices in a particular ratio, including black cardamom, cinnamon (dalchini), clove (laung), cumin (jeera), black peppercorns, coriander seeds and anise star.

Each culinary region has a distinctive garam masala blend—individual chefs may also have their own. Goda masala is a comparable, though sweet, spice mix popular in Maharashtra. Some leaves commonly used for flavouring include bay leaves (tejpat), coriander leaves, fenugreek (methi) leaves, and mint leaves. The use of curry leaves and roots for flavouring is typical of Gujarati and South INDIAN FOOD.

Traditional and Modern Protein-Rich Indian Food: A Culinary Journey

Indian cuisine is renowned for its rich flavors, aromatic spices, and diverse array of dishes. Beyond its deliciousness, Indian food has much to offer in terms of nutrition, especially when it comes to protein-rich options. In this article, we will embark on a culinary journey to explore traditional and modern protein-rich Indian food, highlighting the fusion of age-old recipes with contemporary dietary preferences.

Traditional Protein-Rich Indian Food

Dal (Lentils): Dal is a staple in Indian households, providing an excellent source of plant-based protein. Varieties such as masoor dal (red lentils), moong dal (split yellow lentils), and toor dal (pigeon peas) are commonly used. Dal is often tempered with spices, making it a flavorful and nutritious dish.

Paneer (Indian Cottage Cheese): Paneer is a versatile dairy product widely consumed in India. It's rich in protein and used in numerous dishes like paneer tikka, palak paneer, and matar paneer. Its mild taste and ability to absorb flavors make it a favorite among both vegetarians and non-vegetarians.

Chickpeas (Chana): Chickpeas are a popular legume in Indian cuisine, featuring prominently in dishes like chana masala and chole bhature. They are a great source of protein and dietary fiber.

Tofu: Though not native to India, tofu has made its way into the Indian culinary landscape. It's used as a substitute for paneer in various recipes, providing a protein-rich option for vegans and vegetarians.

Nuts and Seeds: Almonds, cashews, and peanuts are frequently used in Indian cuisine, offering a protein boost when added to dishes or consumed as snacks. Additionally, sesame seeds and chia seeds are used in sweets and savory items.

Modern Protein-Rich Indian Food

Protein-Packed Smoothie Bowls: Modern Indian cuisine has embraced the trend of smoothie bowls loaded with fruits, nuts, seeds, and yogurt or plant-based alternatives. These bowls are not only visually appealing but also packed with protein and nutrients.

Quinoa-Based Indian Recipes: Quinoa, a high-protein grain, has found its way into Indian kitchens. It's used as a base for salads, pulao, and khichdi, providing a protein-rich twist to traditional dishes.

Protein-Rich Breakfasts: Indians have reimagined their breakfasts to include protein-rich options like oats, Greek yogurt, and egg dishes. Savory oats, for example, are prepared with vegetables and spices, adding both flavor and protein to the meal.

Protein-Enriched Rotis and Breads: Traditional rotis and parathas have been enhanced with protein by incorporating ingredients like besan (gram flour), soy flour, and whey protein. These fortified bread options cater to health-conscious consumers.

Protein-Loaded Snacks: Modern Indian snacks have taken a healthier turn with roasted chickpeas, quinoa puffs, and protein bars becoming popular choices. These snacks offer convenience and a protein punch for on-the-go consumption.

The Fusion of Tradition and Modernity

The fusion of traditional and modern elements in Indian cuisine is evident in dishes that retain their cultural roots while incorporating contemporary dietary preferences:

Protein-Rich Biryani: Traditional biryani has been reinvented with the addition of quinoa, tofu, or high-protein vegetables like broccoli and spinach. These adaptations cater to health-conscious consumers seeking protein alternatives.

Protein-Packed Desserts: Indian sweets like laddoos and barfis are now available in protein-rich versions, often made with whey protein or nut butter. These desserts offer guilt-free indulgence for those looking to satisfy their sweet tooth while meeting protein goals.

Protein Curry Variations: Classic curries like butter chicken and chicken tikka masala have protein-rich vegetarian counterparts made with tofu, paneer, or plant-based protein sources like tempeh.

Protein Parfait: A fusion of yogurt, fresh fruits, nuts, and seeds, protein parfaits combine traditional yogurt-based Indian snacks with a modern twist. They are not only delicious but also provide a satisfying dose of protein.

Conclusion Traditional and modern protein-rich Indian food seamlessly blend to offer a diverse range of delicious and nutritious options. While traditional dishes like dal and chickpea curries continue to be cherished for their rich flavors and protein content, modern adaptations cater to evolving dietary preferences, including vegetarianism, veganism, and health-conscious choices. This culinary journey showcases the versatility of Indian cuisine, where the past and present harmoniously coexist to satisfy both the taste buds and nutritional needs of a diverse population.
