Ker Sangri : Received a Geographical Indication tag
Rajasthan’s famous dish Ker Sangri has received a Geographical Indication tag.It is a Rajasthani delicacy made using sangri pods sourced from hardy khejri trees and Ker berries that grow on Ker trees. Both these ingredients are native to the arid regions of the Thar Desert.Preparing Ker Sangri is a careful and slow process. The Ker berries taste bitter when raw but become delicious after being soaked, boiled, and cooked with Sangri, curd, red chillies, and spices. The final dish is tangy, spicy and full of earthy flavour. Ker Sangri is not just tasty but also healthy. It is high in fibre, low in fat and rich in nutrients. People in Rajasthan usually eat it with bajra roti and ghee, making it a filling and balanced meal.
