Spicy Curries and Colourful Dishes of Sikar Rajasthan

All over India, Rajashthani cuisine is popular for its spicy curries, variety of pickles, colourful dishes and some rustic desserts. Sikar a part of Shekhawati region was famous for warriors.

We always believe that food and culture reflect our geography and lifestyle. Similarly because locals of Sikar were usually from the warrior community their flavours also reflect the same aspect of their life.

Are you confused how food can be warrior style?
The significance of the cuisine of Sikar is that the food prepared in this region can usually be stored for a long time. The uniqueness of these dishes is that these dishes do not need any kind of refrigeration as well.

  • The region also struggles with water scarcity due to which the usage of dahi in curries is more than water unlike other parts.
  • Even one could find less use of green vegetables which is an obvious result of lack of water. However people use the most interesting alternative of that which is the berries which are found in this region. This is the speciality of Sikar.
  • The region has an inclination towards dry mango powder to make their dishes sour instead of the usual tomatoes for again the same reason of water scarcity.
  • Some local grains which are common are gram flour, jawar, and bajra which are high in fibre which are ideal for this climate.
  • Certainly the dominating part of this cuisine is the well-known Ghee.
