Indian cuisine is influenced by geography, climate, and religious beliefs. Dishes vary widely by region due to differences in climate and available ingredients. North Indian cuisine is characterized by aromatic spices influenced by Mughlai cooking. South Indian cuisine incorporates seafood and rice as staples. Spices play a key role in Indian cooking for both flavor and perceived health benefits. Religious dietary restrictions also impact ingredients used across regions.
Gujarati cuisine is that of the state of Gujarat, in western India.
The typical Gujarati thali consists of rotli, dal or kadhi, rice, and shaak (a dish made up of several different combinations of vegetables and spices, which may be either spicy or sweet). The thali will also include preparations made from pulses or whole beans (called kathor in Gujarati) such as moong, black eyed beans etc., a snack item (farsaan) like dhokla, pathra, samosa, fafda, etc. and a sweet (mishthaan) like mohanthal, jalebi, doodh pak etc. Gujarati cuisine varies widely in flavour and heat, depending on a family's tastes as well as the region of Gujarat to which they belong. North Gujarat, Kathiawad, Kachchh, Central Gujarat and South Gujarat are the five major regions of Gujarat that contribute their unique touch to Gujarati cuisine. Many Gujarati dishes are distinctively sweet, salty, and spicy simultaneously.

Indian cuisine reflects a 5000-year history of various groups and cultures interacting with the subcontinent, leading to diversity of flavors and regional cuisines found in modern-day India. Later British and Portuguese influence added to the already diverse Indian Cuisine.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

of Kashmir with
magnificent Persian
gardens and terraced
lakes, brisk, cool fresh air
is lured with fragrance of
pine and saffron flowers.
Walnuts and fruit orchards,
morels and black cumin
seeds grow wild, cool
climate for sheep, thus
lamb forms the basis of
many Kashmiri dishes.
• Long grain rice known as
Basmati grow in the
foothills of the mountain
4. • Northern plans, irrigated by the
great rivers of Indus and Gonges,
with soil extreme climate variation,

cold with dry chilly winds, wheat,
corn, millet, barley, and
innumerable variety of legumes
and vegetable flourish.

Bengal. Climate is hot
and human.
• Both freshwater and sea
fish, shellfish, coconut
palms, mustard plants
are common
• Rice is abundant.
Further northeast, cool
air and seasonal rains
create ideal conditions
for cultivating tea
(Darjeeling tea)
6. Great Deccan plateau lined on both
sides by a chain of hills known
as Ghat. Poor soil, lack of
irrigation restrict agriculture.
Northwest of Deccan lies
Gujarat, rich soil for cotton,
millet, barley, legumes, and
varieties of vegetables

population uses lentil purees and
vegetable cooked in sesame oil
are common food.
7. To the northwest is Maharashtra,

8. Summary of Climate:
Four seasons: dry, cool winter (Dec-Feb)
Dry, hot summer (Mar-May)
Southwest monsoon (June-Sept)
Retreating monsoon (Oct-Nov)
Cultural: Hindu 81.3%; Islam 12%, Christian 2.3%,
Sikhism 1.9%; others: Buddihist, Jainism, and
parsis 2.5% total
Religion’s influence on people’s food and eating habits
is profound
Originated from India: Hinduism (no beef), Buddhism,
Jainism, and Sikhism (no beef). Moslem (no pork)
was brought to India 900 years ago, second largest
population there in the world.
Invasion of new cultural is most influential in north.
Natural barriers and long distance made migration
to the south slow and infrequent.
Certain Hindus (Brahmins and Jains) are strict
vegetarians. Meat forbidden are red meat, poultry,
fish, shellfish, eggs, and their products
Certain strict vegetarians won’t eat food that resembles
meat, such as tomatoes, red beets, and watermelon
because of their flesh like color. Neither do they
use seasonings that are strong and generally
associated with the cooking of meat, such as garlic
and onion
9. Cooking style
North India has the most popular and refined style
of cooking. Originated from Moghuls in
sixteenth century. There are Turk-Mongols by
origin and Moslem by religion. They admire
most culture is Persian since they are influence
by it on their way to India.
Moghul food: lovers of nature and food life, keen
sense of beauty, and a passion for elegance.
Good for meat preparations and rice pilafs,
delicate flavorings and superb silk sauces
(often mistaken for Persian dish).
Yogurt, cream, fruit and nut betters are
incorporated into the food to mellow and
velvetize the sauces
Mild but fragrant spices: cinnamon, cardamom,
mace, nutmeg and clove; saffron (especially in Tandoori oven
rice pilafs)
10. The foundation of Indian cooking rests on the flavorings of spices and herbs,
not on special techniques or expensive ingredients
It is an art than a science, highly personalized,
reflecting individual tastes.
Knowledge of how to use spices and herbs is the
key that will unlock the secrets of the Indian
cooking
Some herbs and spices for aromatics, some lend
coloring, others as souring agents, some give a
hot taste, others thicken or tenderize a dish
The role of spices and herbs goes far beyond
pleasing the palate and soothing the senses.
They are medicinal properties known to ancient
Indian (preventive and curative powers)
Example: North Indian appetizer is always sprinkled
with black salt and lemon juice, both of which are
known for stimulating the appetite and increasing
blood circulation.
11. Spices
“warm” spices: generate internal body heat (recommended for cold weather).
Examples: bay leaf, black cardamom, cinnamon, ginger powder, mace,
nutmeg, red pepper (used often in cool climate of Kashmir). Tea is flavored
by cinnamon and cardamom in cool climate.
“cool” spices: take heat away from one’s system. All other spices range from
very cool to moderate warm and suitable at all times in all climates
In Plain region, ‘cool’ spices added to beverages “cool punch’ milk, almond
milk, sunflower and cantaloupe seeds, fennel, cloves, and green cardamom
Spices induce perspiration: hot weather Indians drink hot spice-laced tea; some
spices have several properties:
Saffron: orange-yellow color and a hypnotizing aroma to a dish
Coriander: thicken a sauce and imparts a nutty fragrance
Onions: thicken and perfume Moghul grains
Tomatoes: tenderizing and souring agents
Spices all have to be cooked before use, mixed well-balance, no once
dominates.
