Awadhi Cuisine is a traditional culinary style from the region of Awadh in northern India. Known for its rich flavors and aromatic spices, this cuisine features a variety of dishes, including kebabs, biryanis, and curries. The use of slow-cooking techniques, such as dum, enhances the taste and tenderness of the ingredients.
The cuisine is heavily influenced by the Mughal era, incorporating techniques and ingredients from Persian cooking. Signature dishes like Galouti Kebab and Awadhi Biryani showcase the region's emphasis on meat and rice, often accompanied by flavorful gravies and breads like Naan and Roti.
