Jagapathi Pan

A homemade recipe, which turned into a cottage industry selling thousands of units everyday across various locations around India is huge a deal. This week, we explore what is Jagapathi Pan and its evolution.

This pan is available only and only at the Chaitanya Food Court in KPHB, near Malaysian township. Before getting into the details, I will give you a little peak of its history. This originated about 60 years ago in the Pamarru village in Krishna district. Within no time, its unparalleled flavor won the hearts of almost all neighboring areas and soon grew to be a small-scale cottage industry of its own. Years later, the inventor’s son had started a hotel in Hyderabad – the Chaitanya Food Court and incidentally this original pan is made available only here. The food court is also a class apart in their varieties, especially in the veg and non-veg biryanis. Coming to the pan, its cost ranges from 6 to 60 rupees and at their food court, they charge about 25 bucks and is complimentary with any meal on Sundays.

This Jagapathi pan is a mixture of 35 ingredients like nutmeg, betel nut, clove, cardamom, kankola, cherry, tutti fruity, etc. which bring an uncommon chewing gummy flavor lingering on the tongue for a while and trail a blast of freshness in the mouth for a long time. It is storable and remains fresh for about 2 days too.

So all you pan lovers, do consider this seriously and make a visit to the place and enjoy the zest. Also show some love and let me know what you thought about the flavor and the read in the comments section. Happy Eating!!
