COCONUT CORIANDER PRAWN LETTUCE WRAP

South Indian food has a totally unique flavour profile which usually is so distinctive and not synonymous with a stereotypical image of classic Indian food across the world. It is contrasting in terms of the locally produced ingredients, including the aromatics, spices and staples that influences the unique coastal flavour that comes across through majority of the food that comes across several regions of Southern India.

One of such staple ingredients is coconut which is consistently used in multiple ways to add flavour and texture to several dishes like dried coconut flakes, desiccated coconut paste. It usually imparts a great nutty taste to any dishes that it’s used for adding a different flavour dimension to the dish altogether.

Other staple ingredients used across several different dishes include subtle usage of native spices and loads of herbs which contribute to its distinctive taste. The most commonly used herbs are curry leaves, Coriander leaves, fenugreek leaves, Bay leaf amongst several other that pack a punch of freshness to the authentic South Indian dishes prepared across the states of Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu and Kerala. These herbs can be used in several different ways depending upon the intended result.
