'''Kumauni cuisine''' is the food of the [[Kumaon division|Kumaon]] region of [[Uttarakhand]], [[India]]. <br />
Kumaoni food is very simple and nutritious. It completely suits the hard environment of the [[Himalayas]]. Pulses like ''[[Horse_gram|gouhat]]'' (or ''kulath'', a local type of bean) are fashioned into different preparations like, Kumaoni raitaa, [[Bal Mithai]],<ref>{{Cite news|last=Krishna|first=Anubhuti|url=https://www.thehindu.com/life-and-style/food/hill-cuisine-from-uttarakhands-bal-mithai-to-himachals-siddu-take-your-pick/article28711044.ece|title=From Uttarakhand’s ‘bal mithai’ to Himachal’s ‘siddu’, how cuisine from the hills is making its way|date=2019-07-25|work=The Hindu|access-date=2020-02-25|language=en-IN|issn=0971-751X}}</ref> ras bhaat, chains, faanda and thatwaani. All are unique preparations from the same pulse. Jholi or curry seasoned with curd. Chudkani and Joula made from bhatt pulses. Cereals like [[Finger_millet|madua]] with rice and wheat are popular, <br />
<br />
Meat is also prepared but the recipe is quite similar to the way it is prepared in most of North India.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.kumaoninfo.com/cuisine.php |publisher=Kumaoninfo |title=Cusine |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20100327223635/http://www.kumaoninfo.com/cuisine.php |archivedate=27 March 2010}}</ref><br />
Several snack items, breads, dairy products and beverages form the heart of the Kumaoni cuisine which is traditionally eaten in several parts in Uttarakhand.<ref>http://www.chardhamtour.in/uttarakhand-cuisine.html</ref><br />
