About Salna

Salna is a flavorful curry originating from South Indian cuisine, often served as a side dish with biryani, parotta, or rice. This aromatic sauce typically combines onions, tomatoes, garlic, ginger, and a mix of spices such as turmeric, cumin, coriander, and garam masala. Some variations include vegetables, chicken, or mutton for added flavor and nutrition. Salna is usually prepared with oil or ghee, giving it richness, while the spices provide antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties. The dish is relatively low in carbohydrates and can be adjusted for healthier versions by reducing oil or using lean protein options. However, traditional recipes may be high in sodium and saturated fats, depending on the quantity of salt and ghee used. Salna’s versatility and bold taste make it a popular addition to meals, while mindful preparation can enhance its nutritional value.
