Just like potato, maize and chillies, Tapioca too is an import to the rest of the world, a gift by Portuguese sailors who brought it from Brazil to Africa and Asia.

When it comes to Kerala kappa has a rich history. It is said that this dish was introduced as a substitute to rice by the then King of Travancore Vishakham Thirunal Rama Varma in between 1880-1884 C.E, after his kingdom was hit by a great famine. Since then, kappa is still being consumed as a rice substitute by many people in Kerala.
