Announcing RCI : Gujarati Cuisine

RCI is such a beautiful concept – an eloquent celebration of India. And kudos to Lakshmi of Veggie Cuisine for making this happen. I signed up to host RCI for Feb 08 and my choice of cuisine is Gujarati Cuisine.

The province of Gujarat is in northwestern part of India surrounded by Maharastra(south), Madhya Pradesh(east), Rajasthan (North east) and Pakistan (our neighboring country) on the north. Gujarat(Porbandar) is also the home state of Mahatma Gandhi the Father of our Nation.

Gujarati cuisine refers to the cuisine of the state of Gujarat, India. It is predominantly vegetarian which is why I like it. Also there is quite a bit of pun directed towards the natives of Gujarat a.ka.Gujjus (as they are colloquially addressed) for their frugal tendencies. You gotta watch Kal Ho na Ho for this.

Ok back to RCI. Wiki has some good information to get you started on Gujarati Cuisine. You can find it here.
