Today's Virtual Vacation: The Maldives boasts a delightful culinary scene with a focus on fresh and flavorful seafood. One of the highlights is Maldivian fish curry, a delectable dish that typically features tuna, the staple fish of the region, cooked in a rich blend of coconut milk, curry leaves, and local spices. Another culinary gem is mas huni, a traditional Maldivian breakfast dish. Comprising tuna, coconut, onion, chili, and lime mixed together and served with flatbread known as roshi, mas huni provides a hearty and authentic start to the day. When it comes to beverages, coconut water is a ubiquitous and refreshing choice in the Maldives. Sipped straight from the coconut, it offers a naturally sweet and hydrating experience. Additionally, the Maldives produces its own unique coconut spirit called "raa," a toddy tapped from the sap of coconut palm trees. This local alcoholic beverage is enjoyed by some, providing a distinctive taste of the Maldivian islands. #MaldivianFlavors #GrandExplorations

#MainstreamingIndigenousPeoplesCuisines #TataSteel #IHCL A young Taj Hotels chef during his training was involved in 2022, during his training, in #Samvaad, and told us about his experience. It's great to see the next generation being exposed to the diversity of Indian cuisines. The Indian Hotels Company Limited (IHCL) and Tata Steel Foundation (TSF) have joined forces to empower tribal home-cooks through the 'Tribal Cuisines' capacity-building program. This pioneering initiative is an integral part of Tata Steel Foundation's signature program 'Samvaad', that fosters constructive dialogues among tribal communities since 2014. The post below is from the 2021 Samvaad & video is from 2023: "48 home chefs across 17 tribes from 9 states and 1 union territory cooked up a culinary storm at the 8th edition of Samvaad in 2021. On the menu: Kakra bata (roasted crab chutney) of the Kodas; hau (red ant chutney) of the Hos; jill pithe (a bread made with meat) of the Santhals; kalale palya fish sambaar of the Veta Kurumbas and Genukurumbas; tokaka khisarkhay (chicken curry cooked with alkaline and seasonal vegetables) of the Rabhas; narji oma (pork-based gravy dish featuring dried jute leaves) and nafam (a fermented pea and onion chutney with fish) of the Bodos; ghum roti (a rice and lentil-based bread) of the Bhumijs; ka wang shet tyndong (yam preparation with basil leaves) of the Bhois. This pan-India tribal conclave organised by Tata Steel Foundation is fast growing as an ecosystem for dialogue, discussion and celebration among tribes from across the country. And their cuisines have emerged as a key element of this. #Communitarianism is at the core and it manifests in the way food is cooked, served and eaten, and how feeding others in the community is a joy to those who cook the food. These are intrinsic to a tribe’s identity. Therefore, any work in this area cannot ignore their cuisines. Through #Samvaad, we try to define the culinary heritage of each tribe uniquely in an attempt to bring to the fore their cultural, nutritional and economic significance. This year, the conclave scaled up several notches through cooking experiences with tribal home chefs, curated meals, and online food delivery in collaboration with restaurant aggregator Zomato. The programme’s second objective is to build a tribal cuisine-led entrepreneurship ecosystem across the country. Though at a nascent stage, it is indisputable that participating tribes have begun to view their food — the central theme of Samvaad 2021 — as a tool to reimagine a future that could enable long-term change. Young tribal entrepreneurs like Dwipanita Rabha from the Rabha tribe of Assam or Pyndaplang Walang from the Khasi tribe of Meghalaya have already set up start-ups that are taking their cuisines to urban areas and serving as a source of livelihood. And many are set to follow."
