She has introduced me to Manglorean cooking and is my mentor who guides me with her expertise.This chilli masala powder is widely used by the Bunt Community.Mangalorean cuisine is largely influenced by the South Indian cuisine, with several cuisines being unique to the diverse communities of the region. Coconut and curry leaves are common ingredients to most Mangalorean curry, as are ginger, garlic and chilli.Mangalorean cuisine is well known for their distinct flavor.
