History

Gongura Paneer Tikka is a modern fusion dish that brings together North Indian and South Indian culinary traditions.

Gongura (Sorrel Leaves): Widely used in Andhra cuisine, Gongura has been a staple for centuries. Its tangy taste is highly prized in pickles, curries, and traditional Andhra dishes.

Paneer Tikka: Originating from Punjab, paneer tikka has been a beloved tandoori dish in Indian cuisine, traditionally marinated in yogurt and spices before being grilled.

The combination of these two elements gives rise to Gongura Paneer Tikka, a flavorful innovation that preserves the authenticity of both regions while offering a new and exciting taste.
