About Punjabi curry

Punjabi curry is a flavorful and aromatic dish from Punjab, India, celebrated for its rich, creamy texture and vibrant spices. Traditionally, it features a base of yogurt or buttermilk blended with gram flour, creating a tangy and smooth consistency. Spices like turmeric, coriander, cumin, and fenugreek seeds are used to elevate its taste, while sautéed onions and garlic enhance its depth. Often paired with steamed rice or roti, Punjabi curry can also include vegetables, paneer, or meat, depending on regional variations. From a nutritional perspective, it provides protein from yogurt and gram flour, along with antioxidants from the spices. However, its health profile can vary—some recipes use added fats like ghee or oil, which contribute to its richness but should be consumed in moderation. A balanced portion makes it a wholesome and satisfying dish deeply rooted in Punjabi culinary traditions.
