Konkani Food Glossary

Going through the pictures and discussions on the Konkani Amchi Food Group on Facebook is amazing. Saw a picture of Karaonda (karvand) nonche/pickle and gointa (padwal) upkari and was wondering what are the English names of them.

So I am planning to start maintaining a glossary of Konkani Food terms. If you wish to contribute or provide me links, you are welcome.

Most probably, I will have to include Hindi, Marathi and Kannada terms too.

Alas, there are many terms which do not have English names!

BTW, the web is full of confusions or at least in some parts there is confusion. Or maybe the confusion is in my mind.

Hopefully, the glossary will be a valuable addition to knowledge.
