What makes Indian food truly authentic?

Authentic Indian food is defined by its use of traditional cooking methods, regional recipes, and a balanced blend of spices that create depth of flavor. Every region of India has its own specialties—North India is known for rich curries and breads like naan and paratha, while South India highlights dosas, idlis, and tangy tamarind-based dishes. Authenticity lies not only in the ingredients but also in preparation techniques such as slow-cooking, tandoor grilling, and layering spices at the right stage. At Desi Angrez, authenticity is preserved by sourcing quality ingredients, using time-tested recipes, and ensuring every dish reflects India’s culinary heritage.
