{{Cuisine of India}}
The '''cuisine of Karnataka''' comprises diverse [[vegetarian]] and non-vegetarian cuisines. The varieties' influence can be found in the food habits of many regions and communities from the three neighbouring [[South Indian]] states, as well as the state of [[Maharashtra]] to its north. Some typical dishes include [[Bisi bele bath]], [[Ragi rotti]], [[Akki rotti]], Saaru, [[Vangi Bath]], Khara Bath, Kesari Bath, [[Davanagere]] Benne [[Dosa]], [[Ragi mudde]], and [[Upma|Uppittu]]. The famous Masala Dosa traces its origin to [[Udupi cuisine]]{{Fact|date=May 2007}}. Plain and Rave [[Idli]], [[Mysore]] Masala Dosa and [[Maddur vada|Maddur Vade]] are popular in South Karnataka. Coorg district is famous for spicy varieties of pork curries while coastal Karnataka boasts of many tasty sea food specialities. Among sweets, Mysore Pak, [[Dharwad pedha]], Chiroti are well known.
Although the ingredients differ from one region to another, a typical Kannadiga Oota (Kannadiga meal) includes the following dishes in the order specified and is served on a banana leaf:
Kosambari, Pickle, Palya, Gojju, Raita, Dessert (Yes, it is a tradition to start your meal with a dessert - Paaysa), Thovve, Chitranna, Rice and Ghee
After serving ghee to everyone, one may start the meal. This is done to ensure that everyone seated has been served all the dishes completely.
What follows next is a series of soup like dishes such as Saaru, Majjige Huli or Kootu which is eaten with hot rice. Gojju or raita is served next; two or three desserts are served; fried dishes such as Aambode or Bonda are served next. The meal ends with a serving of curd rice.
It is believed that every meal is a wholesome meal containing essential components of a healthy meal such as proteins, carbohydrates and vitamins.
There is some diversity in core food habits of North and South Karnataka.
While northern-style dishes have [[Sorghum|joLa]] and rice as the primary cereals the south uses [[ragi]] and rice.
