Tired of that same old boring food? Want to try something different? Parsi cuisine is the right direction to walk in. The Parsi community has become an integral part of Mumbai. They have been here for a long time and have integrated their culture and cuisine into everyone’s lives.
A basic Parsi meal includes rice that is eaten with lentils or a curry/ras. Their meals also include a meat dish, accompanied by potatoes or some other vegetable. Common Parsi dishes include Chicken Farcha, Dhansak, Bhakhra and many more.
