4. Introduction
There is an enormous variety of sweets in Rajasthan, which
are relished and savored by all. In Rajasthan, the sweet dishes
are had before the meal, with the main course and after the
meal unlike other desserts. Therefore, sweet dish is never
called dessert in Rajasthan. When a guest arrives in the house
of a Rajasthani, he/she is served food in a proper manner. Self
service concept is considered rude and thus it does not form
part of the etiquettes of Rajasthanis.
The cuisine of Rajasthan is primarily vegetarian and offers a
fabulous variety of mouthwatering dishes. The spice content
is quite high in comparison to other Indian cuisines, but the
food is absolutely scrumptious. Rajasthanis use ghee for
cooking most of the dishes. Rajasthani food is well known for
its spicy curries and delicious sweets

5. Style of Cooking
Dried lentils and beans obtained from native plants like sangria are
used extensively in the preparation of Rajasthani dishes. Gram flour is
the major ingredient in the making of a couple of delicacies such as
"pakodi" and "gatte ki sabzi". Powdered lentils are liberally used in
the preparation of papad. Rajasthanis are quite fond of chutneys,
which are prepared using different spices such as coriander, turmeric,
garlic and mint.
The cooking style followed in Rajasthan is based on the natural
climatic conditions of this desert land. There is scarcity of water and
fresh green veggies in the state of Rajasthan, which has an adverse
impact on its cooking. In the desert belts of Rajasthan, it is preferred
to use milk, butter milk and butter in larger quantities to minimize
the amount of water while cooking food.

6. Popular Dishes
Out of all the Rajasthani dishes, dal bati churma is perhaps the best
known. For those who are in a lookout for variety, Rajasthan has a lot
