An Indian Cuisine Primer

Mayuri specializes in Northern and Southern - which are combinations of different regions to bring unique flavors and aromas to the table. The Northern cuisine most Americans like have been influenced by Mughal, and Northern Indian culture.  Northern cuisine includes Tandoori style cooking which utilizes a cylindrical clay oven which is used for both cooking and baking. Northern cuisine dishes also prepared with rich sauce  spices, herbs to get  good flavor and taste. Four states comprise the cuisines of South India: Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh,  Karnataka and Kerala. Rice and legumes play an important role in South Indian cuisine. Lentils are also used extensively, either accompanying rice preparations, or in the form of independent dishes. Vegetables and dairy products are essential accompaniments, and tamarind  is the favored souring agent. Favorite South Indian cuisine dishes include DOSA, IDLE and VADA of various flavors served with spicy sauces. Chef Krishna R. Chattu has been an Indian food Chef for over 30 years.
