Indian food comprises different cuisines, flavours, tastes and states. With every state, the taste and flavours change and if you travel from North to South even the oil in which the food is cooked is changed.
If you visit south India, you will find the food is for the most part cooked with coconut or in coconut oil. No big surprise, South India is a veggie-lover as its cooking starts from five southern states—Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Telangana, Kerala, and Tamil Nadu. South Indian food is just about as varied as the actual district, yet rice, lentils, chiles, and coconut are considered staples. Tamarind is regularly utilized as do Sambar powder and dried curry leaves in south Indian cooking. Additionally, no dinner is done without coffee down south.
