Bhuna is a technique that is essential to Indian cooking. This style of cooking gives a wonderfully rich and aromatic flavor to a dish. It is a process in which spices are dry roasted on a pan and combined with a moistening agent such as yogurt and onion. A combination of onion, garlic, ginger and spices fried together in a shallow pan until golden brown to fully release their flavors. These are stirred constantly to prevent any burning or sticking. Meat or vegetables taste delicious when cooked using this technique. Bhuna dishes like chicken bhuna, lamb bhuna and vegetable bhuna are very popular.
