Rajasthani Thali - Indian meal menu
When Srivalli announced the thali series little had I known how exciting it was going to be. I do not put up what I cook daily on my blog or for that matter even half of what gets cooked at home. During this process I realized how easy it would be for all you guys to follow and prepare menu from a ready made course list rather than browsing through the recipes and creating one for yourself.
I will updating the recipes for each of the above shortly
For the 1st post in this series I am beginning the journey with the most popular thali known in India. For most vegetarian friends who do not mind a bit of sweet and sour vegetables and curries this is like a feast.
Last month, we took FIL and MIL to Maharaja Bhog where they could not enjoy the food even when they liked it due to the excessive oil and butter in it. When I made a smaller version of it at home, it was thoroughly enjoyed.
Rajasthani cuisine is popular around the world for it depicts the influence of its royal heritage aptly in many dishes. The cuisine also reflects the use of ingredients that are available round the year most probably due to the lack of fresh foods. Chickpea flour is used for many of its dishes.
Check some items I picked for my family
