SouthIndia

The tart flavours of tamarind, lime and mango are used to complement the combinations of spices that are favoured in south Indian cuisine. Rice and coconut grow prolifically in the warm, humid conditions and coconut milk and cream are a recurring theme in the many luscious curries on offer. Being a mainly coastal area, fish and shellfish feature strongly on the menu, and are transformed into a range of tantalizing treats.
