Top Telugu dishes to try
Be it breezy monsoons or hot summers; nothing hits home more than authentic Telugu Cuisines. Their importance not only lies in satiating your palette but also in embracing the culture. Let’s dig into our most-loved choices without any further ado.
Natu Kodi pulusu
Predominantly known for its smoky and distinct accents, Natu Kodi pulusu (country chicken) is your ultimate treat. It is a thick chicken gravy infused with tantalizing spices. Hints of dry coconut and chill just accentuate the flavors to another level. Although Natu Kodi pulusu tastes amazing with steamed rice, its pairing with Raagi Muddha is a classic!
Raagi Sangati
Like they say in cookbooks and articles, you can never go wrong with a classic! Raagi Sangati and Natu Kodi pulusu is a renowned delicacy in Rayalaseema that will leave you craving for more. Ragi is a staple food in some parts of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. It is rich in iron and helps in keeping your sugar levels in control. For this dish, ragi flour is cooked to perfection using only a few ingredients. A drizzle of ghee on top just makes it heavenly.
Jonna rotte
Jonna rotte is one of the most-healthy variants of flatbreads. Made from sorghum flour, this gluten-free delicacy will give you instant gratification. It goes well with pickles or curries.
Gutti Vankaya
Gutti Vankaya is a recipe you will surely fall in love with. Brinjal is cut and stuffed with an aromatic blend of spices. Then it is deep-fried for the smoky, mushy, and tender texture. It has a prominent nutty flavor because of powdered groundnut and just melts in your mouth.
