Origins of North Indian foods
- Origins of North Indian foods
Many of the food items that define modern north Indian and Pakistani cooking have origins inside the Indian subcontinent. At the same time, many foods that are now commonplace are based on fruits and vegetables that originated outside the subcontinent. These ingredients are used in Mughlai, Punjabi, Kashmiri and Frontier cooking.
