Cuisines
Haryanvi cuisine is
like the people of
Haryana-simple,
robust and
inextricably linked
to the land. In
Haryana, the accent
is on food that is
wholesome, fresh and
prepared with little
or no fuss at all.
Food always evolves
out of a certain
cultural context.
The simpler the
culture or
civilization, so too
the cuisine which is
uncomplicated and
essentially implies
sustenance. However,
Haryana with its
essentially agrarian
culture, has
retained a
simplicity in its
cuisine.

History
The Treatise written
by Manu, the
lawgiver in Indian
mythology,
designated Haryana
as Brahmavart from
where the
Brahmanical religion
and social system
grew up and spread
outwards to the rest
of the country. In a
sense, therefore,
one can say that
much of the Hindu
religion and society
was formed on the
flat, dry plains of
the present-day
Haryana.
