Laal maas and Safed maas are the most famous non-veg delicacy. The bellicose lifestyle of the natives shaped the cuisine to a great extent. The scarcity of water and arid weather conditions also played a profound effect on the cooking style. The food is cooked in pure ghee with an innovative blend of spices.
