Khana- Indian Recipes, Ingredients and Indian Food Guide

Rajasthani cooking was influenced by the war – like lifestyle of the Rajput inhabitants and the availability of ingredients in this arid region. Food that could last for several days and could be eaten without heating was preferred. Scarcity of water and fresh green vegetables have all had their effect on the cooking.

Sweet Dishes

Sweet dishes are never referred to as ‘dessert’ in Rajasthan, because unlike desserts which are had after the meal, Rajasthani sweets are had before the meal, with the meal, and after the meal! And typically there is no rationing.
