GOAN ZING

The fiery local chillies add punch to the State's vibrant cuisine and are an integral part of Goa's culinary identity.

SALCETE GREENS

Leafy vegetables such as tambdi bhaji (red amaranth) and vale (Malabar Spinach) are also cultivated in Curtorim.

FLAVOURS OF CURTORIM

Goan curries acquire an amazing flavour when gaunti (local) lady fingers are added to them.
