A traditional Andhra meal is well choreographed.
People sit on floor mats or raised wooden seats. Banana leaves are placed
before them, and with a few drops of water sprinkled on the leaves, the
'plates' are ready for the elaborate next steps.
Rice, of course, is the main dish. Purists will pour a spot of ghee on it.
Interestingly, unlike northern parts of India where rice is only eaten
along with gravy dishes, here, even a dry curry is a perfect combination
with rice.
There are at least five kinds of dishes, or courses.
A meal begins with a a chutney, powder or pickle and goes on to a cereal
and then a curry and then a 'pulusu'. Almost as if thought up by a
dietitian, the last course, yoghurt, is an ideal coolant after all the
exciting flavours before it.
Whether the tangy, sour pulusu or the flaming hot chutneys and pickles,
whether the subtle taste of mustard or the mouthwatering hint of sorrel,
the flavours of Andhra whip up your appetite, again and again.
