  • loonak or purslane with garlic tempering

    Loonak~ Purslane Or Kulfa Saag Recipe

    June 22, 2026 - By Alka Keswani

    POV: Sindhis make nutritious food out of garden weeds Meet Loonak (लूणक) ~ aka Purslane (Kulfa), which grows in gardens, in fields and even between roadside pavers! Loon in Sindhi refers to salt and Loonak is named so because of its inherent salty flavours. Memories : 1980’s, Summer vacations, roaming in by-lanes, spotting succulent Loonak (purslane) growing  street side, shooting up between the cracks of bricks on the road, but you resist the urge to pluck because foraging in urban areas feels awkward and criminal (people gawk as if you are stealing ). “Weeds? No dear, that’s lunch.”   You…

  • Sweet Poha

    Mitha Pehun|Sweet Poha

    December 14, 2022 - By Alka Keswani

    Mitha Pehun or/ Peyun ~ Sweet Poha I always thought that the dish Poha made in Sindhi homes is a relatively new adaptation from the kitchens of Maharashtrian neighbours. The popularity of the humble dish could be judged by the fact that it became one of the most preferred breakfast options for serving the guests, be it during weddings, condolence meets or even for religious gatherings like Varsi (Death Anniversaries) of religious or spiritual leaders. Gradually when I got to taste the traditional poha made at homes of my Maharashtrian and Gujarati friends and neighbours, I realised that there are…

    Chauran Pharyun|Long Beans

    July 7, 2022 - By Alka Keswani

    Pharyun in Sindhi could mean the pod of any legume or pulse grains but most of the Sindhis consider french beans as the Pharyun. Chauran (or Raanh) means Chawli or black eyed beans  and the whole beans are called Chauran Jyun (of) Pharyun. Tender Long beans are not commonly had in many Sindhi homes though fresh pods from the matured beans are often cooked in Sindhi style gravy dish (Ras mein). Recently I found extremely fresh tender long beans and couldn’t resist buying a bunch of it. I cooked it the way Sindhis make  Gvar/Guar patata. In the Thali: Chithyal…

    Matar Pao|Black Vatana Chaat

    January 12, 2022 - By Alka Keswani

    Matar Pao or the black vatana chaat is a classic street food dish from Ulhasnagar, my home town! It is made by cooking dried black peas (Kaala Matar/Vatana) with salt and water and the curry is generally flavoured with just pepper. A spicier version is made by adding garam masala powder by many vendors. The rustic flavours of the dish come from cooking vatana for longer duration, till soft and then by mashing some to make the gravy more thicker, homogenous and flavourful. Dried black peas take forever to cook and hence soaking these for 12 – 24 hours is…

  • Gogo/Gogro~ Naagpanchmi Food and Rituals

    August 12, 2021 - By Alka Keswani

    Gogo or Gogro is a Sindhi festival celebrated in honor of the God of snakes, named Gogal Devta. It is celebrated as Nag panchmi by many Indian communities. Gogo is now observed only by a small percentage of Sindhi families and many are not aware of the rituals as well. But for those who wish to know why and how this festival was celebrated, here I am, with some details about the Gogo festival. The Legend: Gogo (Gogal), as per a legend, was the grandson of King Gopichand who ruled a place in Thatta (Now in Sindh, Pakistan). Gogo’s mother…
