Rice and curry is a popular dish in the Southern Indian states of Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Kerala, and Tamil Nadu, as well as in Sri Lanka and Bangladesh. Rice and curry dinner comprises the following: * A large bowl of rice, most often boiled, but frequently fried. Sometimes ''Kiribath'', rice cooked in coconut milk, is served. * A vegetable curry, perhaps of green beans, jackfruit or leeks. * A curry of meat, most often chicken or fish but occasionally goat or lamb * Dhal, a dish of spiced lentils * Papadums, a thin crisp wafer made from legume or rice flour and served as a side dish. * Sambals, which are fresh chutney side dishes; they may include red onion, chili, grated coconut, lime juice, and are often the hottest part of the meal. Each bowl contains small portions, but as is traditional in most of tropical Asia, if a bowl is emptied, it is immediately refilled. The food uses chili peppers, cardamom, cumin, coriander and other spices. It has a distinctive taste. The cuisines uses ingredients like dried fish which are local to the area. The spicier preparations are believed to be among the world's hottest in terms of chilli content (second only to Sylheti). While natives are born into this cuisine and develop a healthy tolerance to spicy food, many visitors and tourists to the country often find the spiciness excessive. As a result, many local restaurants in developed and tourist areas offer special low-spice versions of local foods to cater to foreign palates, or have an alternative western menu for tourists. ==See also== * Stringhopper * Adobo * Japanese curry 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rice and curry」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
