Manipur
Manipur cuisine is simple, fresh, and healthy, deeply rooted in the state’s tribal traditions and natural surroundings. Rice is the staple food, often served with light soups, stews, and vegetable dishes. A popular dish is Eromba, a spicy mash made from boiled vegetables like potatoes or beans mixed with fermented fish and red chilies, giving it a tangy and smoky flavor. Singju is a refreshing salad made with seasonal greens, shredded vegetables, and a spicy mustard seed dressing, adding crunch and zest to meals. Fish and pork are commonly consumed, cooked with minimal spices to highlight their natural taste. Fermented ingredients like Ngari (fermented fish) are essential in many dishes, providing unique flavors. The cuisine focuses on natural, simple cooking methods with minimal oil and spices, making it both nutritious and flavorful, closely connected to the culture and environment of Manipur.
