Indian food gets its unique flavor from the many spices that are often used in dishes, including ajowan, cardamom, chat masala, coriander, fenugreek, nigella seed and dried red chili. Many of the spices used in curry dishes offer some sort of healing property, such as cumin, which is touted as easing stomach issues. Whole wheat flour, or atta, is often used to make many dishes as well as gram flour, or besan, and basmati rice. Indian breads often resemble a flat bread or tortilla shape and are often unleavened. Main dishes that are often seen in India include radish stuffed flatbread, seasoned rice, spicy dosa and spicy chickpeas.
