Together let us master the essence of the traditional Punjabi Cuisine. The cuisine that developed over two-and-a-half centuries, thriving on sustained patronage of multiple kingdoms, ruled by different kings. Maharaja Ranjit Singh united these Sikh kings to form the Great Sikh Empire, which was divided along religious lines into West & East Panjab in 1947. This is when the cuisine first made inroads into Delhi and became the true definition of Indian food.
