Let’s Explore some Kerala Dishes…

Kerala cuisine is a celebration of simplicity, spices, and soulful cooking. From the comforting warmth of a bowl of kanji to the irresistible tang of Kerala fish curry simmered in clay pots, our recipes are deeply rooted in culture, tradition, and love. These are the Kerala dishes we grew up with — lovingly prepared by our mothers and grandmothers — often without written recipes, just intuition and experience passed down through generations.

Here we have added the recipes that are usually present in almost all kitchens in Kerala. Of course the lifestyles has changed a lot and people are now running behind some modern alternatives. Our busy lifestyles does not allow the time to spent more in kitchen. Nowadays its common to have some bread toasts, oats etc. for breakfast and dinner . Busy routine and fast foods have become the norm, and traditional meals are often reserved for special occasions or forgotten altogether. We might have a craving for our childhood tastes. Especially when we are out of Kerala and there are less options to have the traditional food. Cooking some Kerala food recipes becomes more than just a routine — it becomes a way of reconnecting with home. So its a good idea to make it in our kitchen at least once in a week.

This page brings together recipes that are still found in kitchens across Kerala. Whether you’re looking to recreate the flavors of your childhood, introduce someone to the magic of Kerala cuisine, or simply enjoy a wholesome, home-cooked meal, you’re in the right place.

Whether you’re a seasoned cook or just beginning your culinary journey, these recipes are simple, soulful, and rooted in tradition. Especially for those living far from Kerala, cooking these dishes brings more than just taste — it brings back memories.

So go ahead — pick a recipe, slow down for a bit, and let the flavors of Kerala take you back.
