Chole Bhature
The versatile Chole Bhature is the perfect dish for breakfast, lunch and dinner. With its spicy chana masala (chickpeas) and soft, fried bhatura - it is a top local recommendation.
Parathas
You can never have just one paratha, a flatbread stuffed with peas and mashed potatoes. In fact, this popular food item has a whole street dedicated to it in Delhi called the Paranthewali Gali.
Aloo Chaat
Aloo Chaat is a local potato-based savory street snack that is perfect for a quick bite. Almost every nook and corner of Delhi has a chaatwallah.
Kebabs
Those looking for non-vegetarian can opt for a plate of kebab. The streets near Jama Masjid smell of aromatic kebabs and fried chicken. You can also choose to wrap yours in rumali roti (paper-thin bread) and turn it into a roll.
Butter Chicken
Butter chicken practically originated in a tiny street in Delhi before becoming a world-famous delicacy. Prepared in a butter-rich, creamy gravy - this dish is going to leave you asking for more.
