{{Indian cuisine}}<br />
The type of the dishes of the [[India]]n state of [[Arunachal Pradesh]] vary within the region, according to tribal influence (with the influence of [[Apatani people|Apatanis]], Chuki, [[adi people|adi]] and [[Nishi people|Nishi]])<br />
<br />

<br />
The [[staple food]] is [[rice]] along with [[fish]], [[meat]] (Lukter) and many [[green vegetable]]s. Different varieties of rice are available. [[Lettuce]] is the most common and preferred vegetable of all, prepared by boiling it with [[ginger]], [[coriander]] and [[Green chili|green chillies]] and pinch of salt. Boiled rice cakes wrapped in leaves is a famous way of packing the cooked rice. Dishes in eastern districts like [[Tirap_district|Tirap]] and [[Changlang district|Changlang]] have some different method in their way of food preparation.<br />
<br />
Many wild herbs and shrubs are also part of the cuisine. Bamboo shoots both dried and fresh are used extensively.<br />
<br />
Prior to Indian Independence when British policy to isolate the Hill people NEFA ([[North-East Frontier Agency]]) were in effect, wild birds and animals were a big part of their diet, but with modern restrictions on hunting this is no longer the case.<br />
