KERALA CUISINE

Food is an inherent part of our culture. We Keralites have our own wonderful and unique foods, using our spices and farm produces. The cuisine of Kerala is mildly flavoured, gently cooked and has a certain gentle delicacy on the stomach. Kerala recipes are natural and nourishing while being delicious and rich in spices. We have lip smacking curries and gravies, tongue tickling pickles and chutneys, soft and melting breads, sweets that you can gorge without fear… foods of all kinds of texture and flavour.

The traditional feast of Kerala - called ‘SADYA’ is dished up readily during Onam. Exotically served on a clean fresh banana leaf, this multi-course extravaganza comprises mainly of rice and countless curries and dishes all delectably vegetarian. Various tongue -tingling pickles add a touch of spice. Large helpings of Payasams - a sweet milky porridge are served with dried fruits and nuts as dessert. However there is a good deal of seafood available and the prawn recipe in coconut gravy are exceptionally good.
