Popular Telangana Food Items Which You Would Love To Try
First let me tell you Telangana cuisines are much different than Andhra. The former is a dry place, while the latter is coastal. Telangana is the newest state in India formed on 2 nd of June, 2014. Popular telangana food items are spicy and tangy and incorporate ingredients like sesame seeds, asefotida and chillies. Wheat flat bread I.e. roti, is the staple diet and rice is eaten comparatively less. The popular Telangana food items are as follows and let’s start with the most important meal of the day-Breakfast.
1. Sarva Pindi: this savoury pancake is one of the popular Telangana food items made using chana dal, rice flour, chilli and peanuts. It is rolled out like flat bread and poked with holes. Its other name is Ginne appa.
2. Malidalu: This is more like a dish made from left over chapattis. The left over chapati’s are grinded along with jaggaery, and dry fruits like cashew, pista and ghee. It’s rounded out on the palm into small balls. Its sweet and filling. A perfect sweet meat to have a meal.
3. Sakinalu: I know the names are getting funnier or more like tongue twisters but trust me, they are good food. Sakinalu another very popular Telangana food items which is a deep fried snack made using sesame seeds and rice flour. It has other names like murkku, chakralu, chakli etc.
Sankranti season is void without it and no wedding festivities are complete if sakinalu is not prepared.
