    Not sure if this comment was made in good faith (perhaps this is why someone downvoted you), but I would like to think that there were no ill-intentions.

    Yes, we do have mango curries. Us Tuluvere eat the Mangalorean-style Kukku da Kajipu (literal translation: Vegetable of Mango, normalised translation: Mango Curry). It is truly a vegan dish, and it tastes amazing.

    If you want other recommendations, then this is a must-try: Pelakai da Gatti (literal translation: Dumpling of Jackfruit, normalised translation: Jackfruit cake). Another amazing vegan dish - it is just that you have to substitute cow’s ghee with coconut ghee.

    And there’s also stuff like dosæ and idli, which are also vegan, as long as the cow’s ghee is substituted. Sorry if I didn’t use the original script here, my language still does not exist in the Unicode.

      I love Mangalore foods. I’m a big fan. I need to explore local dishes next time I’m there

        Personally I’m a non-vegetarian, although I don’t eat that often, so I’d recommend sea-food any day.
