Punjabi Cuisine

Punjabi cuisine originates from the Punjab region of India and Pakistan and is known for its hearty, flavorful dishes. It features a variety of vegetarian and non-vegetarian options, often cooked with spices like cumin, coriander, and turmeric. Popular dishes include butter chicken, paneer tikka, dal (lentils), and aromatic breads like naan and paratha. The cuisine emphasizes rich gravies, tandoor-cooked meats, and freshly baked bread, creating a robust, satisfying taste.
