Cream cheese in India is today considered to be
a good substitute and addition to any type of food. A number of restaurants and
hotels are today using cream cheese in the Indian recipes. Here we have listed
some of the Indian recipes in which cream cheese is used.
It
has been long enough since cheese as well as the cheese cubes has made an entry
in the Indian kitchen. Ever since instant noodles made their entry into the
Indian market around two decades ago, every home maker has grated cheese and
sprinkled it over the 'masala' noodles.
Have
you tried the cream cheese to the traditional vadapav? With the new Indian
generation becoming more demanding in their requirements, the vadapav with
cream cheese costs more.
This
cheese can also be used with Indian salads too. Indian salads consist of
cucumbers, tomatoes, beet roots and in some cases, bitter melons.
Traditionally, Indian salads were served with sauce and coriander chutney, and
cream cheese is fast replacing these mixtures. If the western world has Nachos,
India has its traditional papads. They are thinner than Nachos, are used as a
side dish with the traditional lunch and dinner.
One
popular cheese snack is when Indian bread, which is basically a loaf of bread -
and not sliced bread - is dipped in cream cheese. This makes for a healthy and
appetizing snack. For those who would like to add to the taste, they can add
other ingredients like chopped onions, tomatoes, red chili powder, etc.
Another
important addition to the inventory of this cheese is the Frankie. Though the
Frankie would seem a non-Indian recipe, it is actually Indian at soul. The
round bread, is a staple of any Indian family breakfast, lunch and dinner. The
simplest Frankie comprises of spices, onions, tomatoes, mashed potatoes, and
cream cheese.
Cream
cheese also makes an important entry into the traditional full food Indian
dishes, like paneer and peas. Paneer is the Indian word for cottage cheese, and
the combination of peas, onion, tomatoes, and this cheese have been an Indian
family favorite since a long while now.
These
are some of the simple recipes that use this cheese as an important ingredient.
The demand for this best cheese in India is increasing day by day. This
cheese is now available in all major supermarkets in India.
