The ranking is based on 367,847 ratings received for 11,258 dishes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\"><strong>Top Global Dishes<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\">Colombia&#8217;s Lechona claimed the top spot with a remarkable 4.78 rating. This traditional dish involves a whole roasted pig, deboned and stuffed with a flavorful mixture of onions, peas, herbs, and various spices. It&#8217;s typically slow-cooked for hours, especially for special occasions, resulting in a tender, succulent interior and crispy golden skin.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">Italy&#8217;s Pizza Napoletana followed closely in second place with a 4.75 rating, highlighting its global appeal.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">Brazil&#8217;s Picanha secured the third position with a 4.69 rating, showcasing its popularity as a cut of beef often grilled or roasted.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Indian Dishes on the List:<br>While no Indian dishes made it to the global Top 20, four popular Indian delicacies earned a spot in the overall list:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\">Murgh Makhani (Butter Chicken) ranked 29th. TasteAtlas notes it as arguably the most recognized Indian dish globally, widely known as &#8220;Butter Chicken.&#8221; This rich, creamy curry features tandoori-cooked chicken in a spiced tomato and butter-based gravy.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">Hyderabadi Biryani secured the 31st position. TasteAtlas highlights that its rich flavor is attributed to the unique cooking process where raw rice and raw meat are cooked together with exotic spices, unlike other regional biryanis where they are often prepared separately. This &#8220;dum&#8221; cooking method, believed to have Persian origins, creates a fragrant and deeply flavored dish.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">Chicken 65 was listed at 97th.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\">Keema came in at the 100th spot. TasteAtlas describes Keema as a famous dish with Persian roots, typically prepared as a stew or curry using minced meat, often lamb or chicken, along with green peas, ginger-garlic paste, chili, onions, ghee, and garam masala spices. It&#8217;s commonly served with pav buns or various flatbreads.<br>TasteAtlas is lauded as an &#8220;encyclopedia of flavors&#8221; and a &#8220;global guide to traditional dishes, local ingredients, and authentic restaurants,&#8221; providing insights into the culinary world.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A renowned global guide to traditional dishes, local ingredients, and authentic restaurants, has published its list of the 100 best dishes in the world.
