Asked 6 months ago
Kerala is renowned for its delicious traditional cuisines that reflect the state's vibrant culture and diverse history. Some of the famous cuisines of Kerala include mouthwatering dishes like appam with stew, banana chips, puttu and kadala curry, seafood specialties like karimeen pollichathu (pearl spot fish), fish moilee, and prawn curry. The state is also known for its delectable vegetarian dishes such as avial, olan, and thoran, which are made with fresh and locally sourced vegetables. The rich flavors of Kerala cuisine are enhanced by the generous use of coconut, curry leaves, and spices like black pepper, cardamom, and turmeric. The traditional sadhya, a vegetarian feast served on a banana leaf, is a must-try experience that showcases the diversity and richness of Kerala's culinary heritage.
