Pakora is a fried snack found across South Asia,  created by taking one or two ingredients such as onion, eggplant, potato, spinach or plantain, and dipping them in a batter of gram flour and then deep-frying them.   

The black-eyed pea, also called black-eyed bean and chawalie or lobia in various languages in India and Pakistan, is  grown around the world for its medium-sized, edible bean.

Biryani is a set of rice-based foods made with spices, rice (usually basmati) and meat, fish, eggs or vegetables.  The name is derived from the Persian word beryā(n) which means "fried" or "roasted".  Biryani originated in Persia and it was brought to South Asia by Iranian merchants.

Barfi, is a sweet confection from the Indian subcontinent.  It is made from condensed milk, cooked with sugar until it solidifies.  Barfi is often flavored with fruit (such as mango or coconut) or nuts and spices such as cardamom.
