How Does Telangana Cuisine Differ from Andhra Cuisine

How Does Telangana Cuisine Differ from Andhra Cuisine

The way of preparing dishes differs in both the regions. People in Telangana love to add spring onions, coriander seeds, lot of sesame, tamarind, green chillies, spices to impart an exclusive flavour to the dishes. Red chillies (koraivikaram) and asafetida are also used in dishes in Telangana. 
 
People residing in coastal Andhra do not use much of sesame and love to add hot Guntur chilly and coconut to their dishes. 

As far as preparation of pickles is concerned, in Andhra, pickles are prepared by adding oil without first heating it. However, in Telangana,  it is a must to boil oil and cool it before adding it to the pickle.Gongura or Puntikura is extensively used in curries and pickles.
