<br />
'''Rajasthani cuisine''' ({{lang-hi|राजस्थानी व्यञ्जन}}) is the cuisine of the rugged [[Rajasthan]] region in [[ North West India]]. It was influenced by both the war-like lifestyles of its inhabitants and the availability of ingredients in this arid region.<ref name="Dubey">Krishna Gopal Dubey, The Indian Cuisine, PHI Learning Pvt. Ltd., pp.193</ref> Food that could last for several days and could be eaten without heating was preferred. Scarcity of water and fresh green vegetables have all had their effect on the cooking. It is also known for its snacks like [[Bikaneri bhujia]], [[Mirchi bada]] and [[pyaaj kachori]]. Other famous dishes include ''Dal Baati'', ''malaidar special lassi'' (lassi) and ''Lashun ki chutney'' (hot garlic paste), ''Mawa lassi'' from [[Jodhpur]], Alwar ka mawa, ''Malpauas'' from [[Pushkar]] and [[rasgulla]] from [[Bikaner]], "paniya"and "gheriya" from [[Mewar]].<ref name="Dubey"/> Originating for the [[Marwar]] region of the state is the concept [[Marwari Bhojnalaya]], or vegetarian restaurants, today found in many parts of India, which offer vegetarian food of the [[Marwari people]]. The history also has its effect on the diet as the Rajputs preferred majorly a non-vegetarian diet while the Brahmin, Jains, Maheshwari, Vaishnavas, and other preferred a vegetarian diet. So, the state has a myriad of both types of delicacies.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://food.ndtv.com/food-drinks/regional-platter-the-royal-thali-of-rajasthan-696246?amp=1&akamai-rum=off|title=Regional Platter: The Royal Thali of Rajasthan|publisher=NDTV Food|date=15 March 2018}}</ref><br />
<br />
According to a 2014 survey released by the registrar general of India, Rajasthan has 74.9% vegetarians, which makes it the most vegetarian state in India.<ref>{{cite web|title=Indians love meat of all kinds: That’s what an RGI survey says|url=https://indianexpress.com/article/lifestyle/food-wine/indians-love-meat-of-all-kinds-thats-what-an-rgi-survey-says-2850992-foodie/|publisher=The Indian Express|access-date=23 July 2018}}</ref><br />

==Rajput cuisine==<br />
Rajasthani cuisine is also influenced by the [[Rajput]]s, who are predominantly non-vegetarians. Their diet consisted of [[game meat]] and dishes like laal maas (meat in red gravy), safed maas (meat in white gravy) and jungli maas (game meat cooked with basic ingredients).<ref>{{cite web|url=https://indianexpress.com/article/lifestyle/food-wine/game-cuisine-a-rajput-legacy/lite/|title=Game cuisine: A Rajput legacy|date=25 October 2014|publisher=[[The Indian Express]]|author=Madhulika Dash}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.deccanherald.com/amp/living/food-fiesta/mutton-diaries-of-rajasthan-753798.html|title=Mutton diaries of Rajasthan|publisher=[[Deccan Herald]]|author=Madhulika Dash|date=13 August 2019}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.thehindu.com/life-and-style/food/all-thats-royal-and-rajasthani/article29322292.ece/amp/|title=All that’s royal and Rajasthani|publisher=[[The Hindu]]|author=Divya Kala Bhavani|date=3 September 2019}}</ref><br />
