Nova Posted December 21, 2012 Author Share Posted December 21, 2012 Is there any dish which is made by everyone, in India, on a given occasion such as a festival or holiday. For example: 1. Turkey roast is THE national dish on the occasion of Thanksgiving in the US, and everyone makes it. 2. Burgers/hot dogs barbecue on 4th of July (American Independence Day). I can't think of any single dish which everyone makes on a festival or holiday, in India. :hmmm: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pakora is another. Some sort of pakora is made in every family. overall I think Punjabi food is known is the "Indian food" by foreigners because most restaurants will serve this. Samosa...pani puri etc are universal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daal Chawal doesn't count? and a blob of meat between two buns does? Daal Chawal is probably over eaten. Also, not only do we have it over the holidays but at least 200 of the 365 days in the year.

Lord Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 India's national dish is - KASAM :cantstop: No I have not made a typo there, I literally mean it. Jisko dekho din mein ek aad baar "Kasam" toh khaa hi leta hai. Kabhi "Arey maa kasam yaar, kya faadu pichhar hai" toh kabhi "Kasam se yaar, woh subject bada hi boring hai", and sometimes, you change the language "I swear !!!!!! These traffics are gonna kill me" :D So Kasam is the national food of India :hysterical::hysterical: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anonymous Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 If anything , it must be Biryani. Veg or non veg, there are dedicated foodies out to find the best biryani in town across the country Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoda Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Yes there is a Biryani in every part of the country (I think). So if you are looking for a National dish with good coverage across the various states, it would probably be it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
punjabi_khota Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Never had or even saw biryani once in 17 years I spent in Chandigarh. Things maybe changing now, but the only southie food (if you can call Biryani that) that has nationwide presence is dosa and to some extent, idli.
