There is absolutely nothing better than a table full of yummy breakfast right in the morning! It is said to be one of the most important meals of the day since we eat after a long haul after last night’s meal, and it is the meal that fuels us up until the lunch hour. And let’s admit, a bowl of poha or a greasy paratha, crispy cheela or aloo puris are some of our most favourite north Indian meals!
Here we have 5 of the best north Indian breakfast options you can try at home:
1. Cheela
A savoury pancake, lightly spiced and made into a batter of besan and sooji, cheela is a super quick breakfast snack that is pan-fried to a perfect crisp! You can throw in onion, coriander and chillies to the batter and pair this scrumptious meal with mint chutney or tomato ketchup.
2. Anda Bhurji
Give those eggs a spicy spin, and prepare this mouth-watering bhurji with scrambled eggs, packed with chillies, spices and herbs that are sure to make you slurp!
3. Dalia
The picky eaters might not like it, but Dalia is perhaps the best comfort breakfast you can have in India! You can top this healthy and wholesome porridge-like dish with some oats or nuts to please everyone.
4. Bread Pakoda
For days when you want to indulge without any guilt and let your diet pans go, bread pakoda is the quintessential breakfast! Chopped fine slices of bread, dipped in spicy besan batter and fried until crispy and golden, bread pakoda is a delightful meal when served with some spicy mint chutney or tomato ketchup.
5. Paneer Paratha
Staple breakfast across north India; parathas are indeed a food lover’s delight! While there is anything and everything on the table that you can stuff into a paratha, a protein-rich paneer paratha should be a must-try!
