Pukka Punjabi Food Festival
14 May – 4 June 2009 at Suruchi and Suruchi Too, Edinburgh
Celebrating The Maharajas' Cuisine
Yellow mustard fields, painted tractors and trucks laden with harvest, young
villagers dancing the Bhangra, all these images evoke the rich, fertile North Indian
region of Punjab.
Punjab literally means the land of five rivers. Suruchi and Suruchi Too bring you
tasty mouth watering and feisty cuisine from the Punjab as part of their monthly
‘FOOD FESTIVAL.’
Punjabi cuisine is rich, unlike other parts of India, Punjabi cuisine use a lot meat and
chicken, fresh seasonal vegetables like corn, spinach and mustard greens and a
plethora of flavours. From the gorgeously grilled Tandoori Chicken and tantalising
Tikkas to the India’s national dish Butter Chicken (India’s equivalent to Britain’s
Chicken Tikka Masala) have all been significant culinary contributions of the
Punjab.
From 14 May to 4 June 2009 the master chefs have made a new PUNJABI MENU
with a wide selection of dishes for you to sample available from Thursday to Sunday
every week.
