Once the soup is finished, a red light signals to pick up the soup bowl and spoon, now it's the turn of the starter... As soon as the green light turns on, the starter dishes start being served. This includes traditional Indian starters like Palak Papadi Chaat, Dahi Aloo Tikki, Moong Dal based pizza,Gujarati Khaman Dhokla which we eat in street food, but all of these are served in a royal style.The next stage is the main meal, in which one dish is invariably dal Raisina (the hill on which the President's residence is built is Raisina Hill).

 

The President's chef: What it is like to cook for India's first citizen
Chef Machindra kasture

 It was invented by an executive chef named Machindra Kasture. Black gram and kidney beans are soaked overnight and washed and drained in the morning.It is cooked on low heat for about 8 hours with a variety of spices, tomato cream, saffron, and kasoori methi. During this time, the chef keeps a constant eye on it.The main meal includes dal raisin, fig malai kofta, sabz bawli handi, dum guchhi matar made with expensive daat mushroom, raita, roti, naan, paratha, methi kulcha, etc. After this, the third round comes dessert (sweets).It includes pineapple halwa, custard apple halwa, rabdi jalebi, rabdi roll cake, apple pie (foreign dessert). One or two of these sweets are used to sweeten the taste buds.Finally, the feast is concluded with tea, coffee or Kashmiri coffee.Our food diplomacy is preserved when the dignitary  belches with satisfaction!!! Articles and pictures describing this feast are published in newspapers, magazines and news channels. and two sentences should definitely be written about the kitchen of Rashtrapati Bhavan and its chefs. Such writing really takes India's food diplomacy to greater heights.In this way,the reception held at the Rashtrapati Bhavan creates moments of relaxation and heartfelt conversation between the heads of two countries, which is a part of food diplomacy!!!!
