Announcing Foodabulous Fest Event Series For the Month Of January-2014

Wishing a Very Very Happy New Year to all of My Friends and Family.

Happy New Year 2014

India a country of Festivals or Utsava. You cannot think India without Festivals or Utsava. Utsava which comes from the Sanskrit Language. If we split the word we will get two words like Ut and Sava. Here Ut means "Removal" and Sava means "Wordly Sorrows or Grief" . From this we are easily getting the actual reason or meaning of festivals in India. Its really amazing to imagine that from the ancient age we Indian are so devine in nature. Here Utsava or Festivals signify all the festival regarding Rituals, Cultural or Socialism . Utsava or Festival brings the Positive energy to all our life too. With our Cultural and Traditional ways Festival without Food is just unimaginable. So where is Festival there is Foods too. Above all foods are also selected simultaneously related to the festivals and seasons. Its really encouraging to all food lovers. I feel Proud to be an Indian.

Awadhi Paneer Masala | Lucknow Paneer Masala

Whenever I am thinking for some special cuisine at my home, it has to be really a special dish for me. No any common dishes I would not prefer to follow absolutely. So Some state or region has its own culture for their cuisines. So we identify them only by their special and identical cooking preparation which are really well known by all of us.As for example For Mughlai khana we always know that Biriyani is the most favorable delicacy. Same to same Awadhi cuisine or Lucknow cuisine has their own specialty too. In maximum cases they are cooking in Dum Puckt style foods means cooking will be done in a big hundi with a lid including all the spices but in low flame. But think as Mughal culture and Lucknow culture are more or less same in their cooking style. Still it has to be some differentiation in some cases.
