Indian food is highly appreciated by connoisseurs all across the globe, with the primary reason being the spiciness present in Indian recipes. Indian Recipes have evolved over a period of time into a wide variety of food preparations ranging from two-minute snacks to elaborate and complex recipes. Because of the extreme variation in geographic and climatic conditions, there is almost as much of variety in the ingredients used in making Indian recipes as well as the cooking methods used to prepare them.

The evolution of Indian food has been traced back to almost 3000 years in history. Indian recipes require generous usage of spices like turmeric, red chili, black cardamom, cumin and herbs like basil, mint and curry leaves, which can be used separately or together. There is a vast variety of food preparations that can broadly be classified into four sub-cuisines on the basis of geographical location:

Food classified as Western Indian can vary a lot as this sub-cuisine covers a vast area which ranges from hilly areas to coastal areas. Western Indian cuisine uses ingredients ranging from jowar, bajra and rice to bananas, potatoes and even fish, seafood and poultry.

South Indian food represents the culinary styles emerging from states like Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Chennai and Kerala. Usage of rice, coconut and fish as staples is observed all across the South Indian cuisine. Although the ingredients used are almost the same for South Indian recipes, the method of preparation widely varies even between the states. The Hyderabadi Biryani, a meat and rice preparation, is a South Indian recipe which is a popular gourmet preparation which is highly demanded throughout the world.
