I guess your experience of some South India is limited to Karnataka and sometime in Kerala, you have missed Andhra (one of the spiciest in South India), Telangana (Hyderabad especially is a muslim-hindu/ North-South mix of Mughalai cuisine, you can’t find these flavours else where) and of course Tamil Nadu, the typical South Indian food hub (with Chettinad cuisine, Indo-burmese street foods, Srilankan Tamil cuisine)

Well written! I used to have almost all of these items almost everyday back in India. Now reading this post made me very hungry and a bit homesick.

My family and I want to try Indian food at a restaurant. I think the picture of the Pandi curry looks delicious! Thank you for sharing your experience. I will definitely take my family to an Indian restaurant so we can try all the Indian food.

Enjoyed reading your blog. You have provided a good coverage to South Indian Food. A small correction …

The word “Pandi” or “Pandhi” means pork. The picture of “Pandi pani” shows a dish that is purely vegetarian and have nothing to do with pork. The correct name is “Paani Poori” (Paani = Water, Poori = deep fried bread with hollow inside). Moreover, it is of North Indian origin — most of the fellows who sell Paani Poori on Mysore / Bangalore pavements are from the states of UP or Bihar. In most part of Eastern India (e.g. Kolkata), it is known as “Phuchka”.

Also, you cannot ignore different flavors of Biryani (meat or fish cooked with rice) in South India.

What a mouth-watering post! During my visit to South India in Hyderabad I had many of the foods you mentioned — yummy!! I liked everything that was given to me and nothing disagreed with me. I was amazed! One of my favorites is chicken biryani. Fortunately I found an Indian restaurant stateside that makes great biryani, so I can treat myself on occasion. I make chapatis at home, and on occasion am brave enough to make some paneer curry, which I also like a lot. Really fantastic cuisine! I need to learn how to cook authentic Indian food at home. I miss it very much!

Hey, came across this nice blog of south indian food intro.. heres a tip w.r.t Dosa for those living in US/Canada… you can make your own genuine dosa with ‘chennai dosa batter’ : a wet mix readily available in many stores, ready to pour and spread over a hot non-stick pan. wish I could upload a pic here.

As a south Indian, who is accustomed to reading blogs about south east asia and europe, this one feels new, as it is about the life which i experience on a day to day basis. The food section looks amazing and informative. I would like to add that the non vegetarian part of south India is something which is under rated. For example the Hyderabadi Biryani is called the best dish in India. It would also make for some pretty yummy pics.
