Having grown up in India, I can tell you that North Indian food embraces rich, hearty flavors with creamy sauces, whereas South Indian cuisine is lighter and often more tangy.
North Indian dishes usually have a thicker, creamier sauce while South Indian curries often have a thinner, spicier gravy.
North Indian cuisine uses more dairy (hello, paneer and butter chicken!), whereas South Indian dishes rely more on coconut and tamarind.
