South Indian Cuisine

Google
 

South Indian cuisine is the term generally used to refer the cuisines of the four southern states of India, i.e. Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu.



Though each of these states has their own specific varieties of food, rice is the staple food of this region, and is used commonly, for breakfast, lunch and dinner, in one form or other. The traditional meal is served on banana leaves, and is eaten with right hand. South Indian food has become so popular that you can find at least one South Indian restaurant in almost all major cities.
