History

`PASSION OF PUNJAB' ON A PLATTER. Saag means greens; sarson da saag specifically means mustard greens, and palak da saag is spinach. This flavorful side dish often accompanies hearty whole-wheat griddle breads in Punjab, the wheat-growing capital of India. The people of Punjab prefer rotis or chapatis than rice. In fact their staple food is Makke(Corn) De Roti and Sarson Da Saag. They can have rotis or chapatis with just onions only, if they do not have a curry or vegetable along with it. Another interesting feature is lassi which is a preparation of curd and is quite common among the people of Punjab. They must have a glass of lassi, at least once a day, particularly after breakfast or lunch.
