    Kerala, known as the “land of spices” is a host to cuisines defined by spicy and hot foods. Traditionally in Kerala food is served on a banana leaf and almost every dish prepared in Kerala has coconut and spices giving it a sharp pungency that is heightened with the use of tamarind. Coconut gives the cuisine its richness, absorbing some of the tongue-teasing, pepper-hot flavours. Kerala cuisine is a combination of vegetables, meats and seafood.
