Nestled almost midway between the desert towns of Jodhpur and Bikaner lies Nagaur, a lesser-known but culturally rich city in Rajasthan. Besides its historical fort and dusty dunes, Nagaur is celebrated for its distinct vegetarian culinary traditions—where the arid land’s resourcefulness and royal heritage combine to produce vibrant flavours. In this blog we’ll journey through Nagaur’s food lanes, focusing especially on three vegetarian specialties: masala khichdi, papad ki sabzi, and sutarfeni. We’ll also highlight where to find them—specifically around Nagaur main market and near Nagaur Fort — and explore how they reflect the region’s spice-laden identity.
