Since the start of the pandemic, Kuala Lumpur-based Indian expatriate Ruth Isaac, 63, has been even more mindful of eating nutritious food to boost her immunity.

Ruth hails from Mangalore, a port city in the coastal region of Karnataka in South India. In these times, she is relying on the time-tested goodness of the traditional Mangalorean dishes she has inherited from her mother and grandmother.
