Odia Recipes - Foods of Odisha

It is our mission to promote and popularize the traditional food recipes of the Odisha state, which are gradually getting lost from the Odia homes due to the rapid socio-cultural globalization taking place all around. Attempts have been made to present the recipes in a simple manner, so that they may be followed by the first-timers to prepare the desired food items easily. This app is derived from our website OdiaRecipes.com

The culinary tradition of Odisha is centuries old. It is intertwined with the geographical and cultural identity of Odisha, and has evolved over a long period of time to acquire uniqueness of its own. Odia foods are less spicy and less oily, making them one of the healthiest foods of India. The Mahaprasad served to the deities in the famous Jagannath temple of Puri represents the heritage of the food traditions of Odisha. Rice, pulses and seasonal vegetables serve as the basic ingredient of Odia foods. Besides, fish and sea foods also form a major part of the food preferences in Odisha.
