Rasoi Restaurant

About Rasoi Restaurant

Cuisine of India, like its people, is rich in variety and has evolved over centuries. Influences of Indian cuisine are obvious in Thai, Chinese, Caribbean and Middle Eastern specialty dishes.

Modern Indian cuisine developed in the Imperial courts of Delhi, Kashmir, Hyderabad & Lukhnow and is influenced by a vast range of regional specialties made with a variety of indigenous and exotic ingredients. Most dishes served at Rasoi are derived from the traditional recipes developed by our grandmothers  and chefs (rasoias) in household kitchens (rasois).

Various regions of India share a common culinary heritage - for example: spiced lentils, rice and coconut in South India, chilli-hot robust vegetarian curries and cereals in Western India, spicy seafood (fish and prawns) with coconut and rice along the costal states, biryanis, kebabs and fancy breads (parathas) of Central India, tandoori dishes of Punjab and garnished (nuts & raisins) delicacies (mushrooms, saffron and lotus roots) of Kashmir.

Eateries in India started as roadside Dhabas which catered to the weary travelers and these Dhabas still flourish along the much-traveled Indian roads.

1.    Shuruat or the beginning which consists of an appetizer or a salad.

2.    Main Course, which consists of one or two entrees (one meat and/or one vegetarian) with bread and condiments.

3.    Side dishes are rice and lentils or gravy and if you like, yogurt.

4.    Dessert to soothe your titillated tongue.    

5.    Mukhwas is customarily enjoyed as a mouth freshener.
