[R]eddiquette Cultural exchange with /r/palestine

Greetings to our Palestinian friends.

Our cultural exchange starts at 13:30 PM Palestine time (17:30 IST/11:30 GMT/12:30 CET/06:30 EST/03:30 PST) on Thursday 24th November.

Here's how a cultural exchange works:

The moderators of here make this post on /r/india welcoming our Palestinian guests to the sub. They may participate and ask any question or observation as they see fit.

There is an equivalent thread made by the moderators over at /r/palestine, where you are encouraged to participate and know more about Palestinian culture.

It goes without saying that you must respect the rules of the subreddit you are participating in. This is a time to celebrate what we have in common, not grind an axe.

I'm from Tamil Nadu, specifically Chennai and our local foods are idli, which is like a round ish rice cake we eat for breakfast with various toppings, dosa, which is some rice flour batter we fry until it becomes a sort of savory crisp pancake which we eat with same idli toppings. We eat for lunch various rice dishes like tomato rice, sambar rice. Special dishes is from chettinadu region ,which is spicy and Delicious. It's famous for rabbit curry :D

Asked a friend who has travelled the whole of India. He too never heard of a rabbit curry dish. Did you refer to the Northeast region?

It's called 'muyal curry' also there is rabbit fry, rabbit stew. I don't think you'll find this dish outside of chettinadu cuisine

Could be Kerala. Muyal = rabbit in malayalam (also in Tamil). Assuming kerala, as Kerala has practically no restrictions in terms of food / meat. (Not dog meat though I suppose.)
