The traditional way to eat Indian food is to send food directly to your mouth with your right hand, without any tableware.

They will wash their hands before meals. If the staple food is rice, they will use the thumb, forefinger and the first knuckle of the middle finger of their right hand to gather some rice and then scoop some soup into their mouths. If it's a cake, tear it into small pieces and fold it into small packets, then dip it in soup or eat it with side dishes. If you are skilled, you won't get dripping with soup when you eat it.
