WATCH: Celebrity chef Sarah Todd enjoys Kalari Kulcha aka ‘Jammu’s Mozzarella’

Indian street food is much more than aloo tikki and vada pav. While everyone loves these popular classics, there are also some delectable Indian street foods that not everyone might know about. In her latest Instagram video, Australian celebrity chef Sarah Todd has shared an “incredible” foodie from the streets of Jammu. “This is why I came to Jammu – Kalari Paneer,” she says in the video. Kalari Paneer is prepared from buffalo milk and is often called the ‘Mozzarella of Jammu’.
This lokal is pan-fried until it forms a crisp, golden crust and remains gooey and springy on the inside. The chef explains that the cheese is served in Jammu’s kulcha, which, unlike typical North Indian flatbreads, is fluffy and pillowy. She adds that loaded with onions, grilled kalari and spicy chutney, each bite is an explosion of taste and texture that is impossible to resist.

“I think this is my new favorite street food in India. It’s incredible,” says Chef Todd, “and eating it at Sadar Ji Di Hatti on the beautiful, winding streets – where every corner has its own charm, colour, and Life – make it even better. The tiny streets, vibrant energy and warmth of the locals make discovering Kalari Kulcha feel like discovering a piece of the heart of Jammu, one unforgettable slice at a time.
