Why is South Indian food different from North Indian food?

[Dem!god]

Paratha is different from Parotta..though the Parotta is derived from Paratha.
Andhrites don't eat Parotta, they eat Paratha.

This is a Parotta:

This is a Paratha:

its the same thing u are calling parotta......its just the distorted form of laccha paratha...
andharaites do eat ur parotta....i have seen and eaten in many small and big hotels motels and restaurants ....

the paratha u showed is stuffed one but there are many non stuffed paratha....

ab U are teaching a north indian abt paratha......
janta tumhe kabhi maaf nai karegii....

Parotta is nothing but lachha partha's refined form.
My theory is somebody from north once made lachhaa paratha for his south Indian friend. South Indian friend who wanted to emulate his north Indian fren ended making paratha with white flour and called it parotttttaaa.

Yeah, but isn't it a bit weird to see Parotta stalls in almost every city and town of Kerala? I'd understand it if it were big only in the major cities, but just about every town has them.

Kaise din aa gaye yaar, ek South Indian North Indian ko Paratha ke potu dikha kar explain kar raha hai.

Jaise maine kaha, it's a recent entrant into the major cities of Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka. But it's ubiquitous in Kerala. You cannot escape it even if you want to there. Fish and Parotta are that common there.

south india also uses lot of spices ...if I have to say then south india uses more spices then norther counter part....
after all kerala is spice bowl of india......
we use a lot of oil and every thing is fried,....where as south uses many thing raw.....and I like that.....raw is good...
south uses a lot of coco nut.....I have got one question why south uses lot of sour in food or its just mine ignorance......

I got to agree with you that we use less spices than South Indian food and majority our food requires the use of oil a lot, also ghee and yoghurt. And are also fried like shobji, aloo or dim (egg) bhajji or meat and tikka based food. And many others!!

My parottaa theory says it all began in northern malabar.Kerala is a small but populated state and it doesn't take long for tasty recipes to spread.
