Cuisine of Western India
Indian cuisine has grown in popularity in the last few years, though most dishes tend to be from the North. Western India offers a different palate, using tamarind, jaggery, and coconut to create bold, flavorful dishes. Learn to make a sweet-and-spicy shrimp curry flavored with tamarind and cilantro, reminiscent of Thailand’s tom yum, Indian-style home fries, and a beet salad with yogurt and a zing of minced green chili.
