Look at this goodness amount of food!!! This is called Banana Leaf Rice (蕉葉飯). It's a traditional method of serving in South Indian cuisines. Consisting of Rasam, Tairu, root vegetables, pickles, fried gourd, papadum, a heap full of rice and choices of curry (dhal/fish/chicken). And if you feel luxurious, add some meat! Lots to choose from!! My lecturer once told us the science of eating banana leave rice and it makes so much sense that every single side dish complements and plays a role. . Something sour to start the meal, something spicy to kick off the digestive system and something cooling to ensure that the body is not too hot. . @dfood.district #artofeating #scienceandfood #foodexplanation #instafood #instafoodie #bananaleafrice #southindiancuisine #throwback #tb #gathering #foodieonthego #foodiejourney #foodpost #foodporn #foodadventure #dfdfoodiechapter #foodphotography #foodielicious #fotd #potd #foodstory #foodstagram #foodcommunity #igmemories #malaysianfood #foodheaven (at Restoran Sri Nirwana Maju) https://www.instagram.com/p/B86LWm9J-sm/?igshid=mccqm6c28qks
