I lived in India for a year. Trust me, just pinch the food between your fingers and use your thumb to guide it into your mouth. It's an art, but you'll get it!
Start by washing your hands thoroughly. Use your right hand to tear bread (like naan or roti) and scoop up curries and other dishes. Avoid using your left hand, as it's considered unclean in traditional settings.
Honestly, just wash your hands, use your right hand only, and enjoy! It's easier than you think.
It's all about the right hand, folks! Tear, scoop, and enjoy. Don't overthink it, just dive in and savor the flavors.
