How Long Does Indian Food Last Unrefrigerated?
I wouldn’t recommend leaving Indian food unrefrigerated for more than 2-3 hours. The spices might keep your taste buds happy, but they won’t fend off bacteria.

As a chef, I always advise no more than 2 hours at room temp. Wrap it up and pop it in the fridge to be safe.
Generally, you shouldn't leave Indian food out for more than 2 hours. Bacteria love room temperature more than a mango lassi on a hot day!
Hot take: If Indian food’s been out for more than 2 hours, just toss it. Better safe than sorry.
