<p>Of all the Portuguese-inspired breads in Goa, poee (or poi) is probably the most famous. The first Goan pão (bread) was made using local toddy as a source of natural yeast, giving it an original character. Today, most bakers make it using commercial yeast, which yields the same fluffy interior – perfect for mopping up curries.</p>
<p><strong>Flatbreads make a great addition to any meal. Check out our <a href="/recipes/collection/flatbread-recipes">flatbread recipes</a>, from cumin-spiced and seeded to halloumi-filled. </strong></p>
<h3>8. Kingfish</h3>
<p>Known as vison or visvan, kingfish is a delicacy in Goa. A popular take is kingfish rawa fry: fillets are lightly coated in semolina and fried to form a crispy exterior and succulent interior. It’s also used in surmai (kingfish) curry, which contains grated coconut.</p>
<p><strong>Asian spices work perfectly with fish, from Keralan-style mackerel curry to creamy shellfish masala. For further inspiration, check out our <a href="/recipes/collection/fish-curry-recipes">fish curry recipes</a>.</strong></p>

<p>A spirit produced exclusively in Goa. Cashew feni, made from the first extract of the cashew, is courtesy of the Portuguese, who first brought cashews to the Indian subcontinent. Coconut feni, distilled from fermented toddy from the coconut palm, is more popular in South Goa.</p>
<h3>10. Bebinca</h3>
<p>A multilayered coconut cake truly unique to Goa. Although it requires few ingredients, the dish takes a long time to make. Legend has it that the sweet was invented by Bibiona, a nun at the Convent of Santa Monica in Old Goa.</p>

<p><strong>1. Drink kokum</strong></p>
<p>Kokum, a plant in the mangosteen family is found in the coastal areas of western India. Its ruby-coloured fruits are juiced as well as dried, and used to sour fish and prawn curries in Goan cuisine. Rich in antioxidants and vitamin C, kokum juice is a refreshing drink to beat the heat. Kokum solkadhi, also known as kokum kadhi, is a spicy-tangy-sweet beverage made with coconut milk, spices and liquid extracted from kokum peel. Good for digestion, it’s served at the end of meals.</p>
<p><strong>2. Visit the markets</strong></p>
