In many parts of India, a meal is served as a collage of various dishes. It typically includes rice and/or bread, veggies, sour and sweet soups/chutney, yoghurt/curd dish and other items. The simplest thali may be just bread and daal, or rice and daal with chutney, while others may have 3, 4, 5, or even 10+ items. The separate flavors and dishes may be served in individual separate metal containers (katori), or without such containers.
