About North Karnataka Cuisine Specials
Real Uttara Karnataka Flavours, Right Here
For me, food means what my mom cooked - simple, homely, never fancy. At Agraane Kitchen, I make everything fresh, just how we do it back at home in North Karnataka. If you miss that Jolad rotti meal in Bangalore, you’ll feel right at home here.
What’s On the Plate?
- Jolada rotti, soft and thin, straight from the tawa
- Ennegayi, that classic baby brinjal curry with proper North Karnataka masala
- Palyas (side veggies) change up depending on what’s fresh and good - sometimes kalupalya, sometimes something else
- Shenga chutneypudi (peanut powder) for that extra punch
- Not fancy, but always filling and full of flavour
Snacks for Every Mood
Evenings or guests dropping in, there’s always something special from Hubballi-Dharwad.
- Girmit, spicy and crunchy, just like you get back home
- Menasinakayi bajji (chilli fritters) and erulli bhaji (onion) - hot and perfect for Bangalore rain
- Zunakada vade, if you want something different
For Your Gatherings
Whether it’s a small habba or a big office lunch, I do North Karnataka catering in Bangalore. I’ve handled everything from little home parties to proper Rajyotsava celebrations. Food always feels homely, never hotel-style.
If you want that real taste from Uttara Karnataka, this is it.

My Story
Namaskara! Agraane Kitchen started in my own home, just making food that tastes like ajji’s hands. I love cooking Brahmin-style meals, the kind that brings back old memories. Hearing ‘Oota tumba channagittu... ammana kai ruchi nenapag bantu’ is what keeps me going. We even helped a farmer sell bananas once, just because. Now we’ve got a small eatery in Girinagar, but for me, it’s always about good food and good words. Ellu bella tindu olle maatadona.
