What are popular foods of each state in India?


India is federal union of 28 states and 7 territories. Food of each state is
influenced by the neighboring state, the geography, climate, and the culture.
I have grouped the 28 states into 5 major regions: North, Mid-India, South,
Northeast, and East. I have created Mid-India by combining Madhya Pradesh,
Chhattisgarh, Goa, Gujarat, and Maharashtra
In addition, I have created two additional regions: Delhi, and 'Indian
restaurants in UK'. Delhi has its own Muslim and Punjabi foods. The Indian
restaurants in UK have their own brand of Indian British curries originated in
UK.
It was a challenge to create this list. Every state has a large selection of foods,
how to limit the selection. How to credit a state for a given food that originated
in another state. Some selections were easy, the red-ant chutney was made
famous by chef Ramsey. Many readers will not agree with the selections, but
it is just one set of selections.
