This could be attributed to several reasons. In western cooking the ingredients used are available internationally and is generally used across continents and therefore access to ingredients is easier.Even in terms of cooking itself it is far easier as relevant electrical appliances are easily available, as well as it is easy to use. Use of such appliances is certainly not a tedious task and is virtually at the push of a button.

In the North the main diet is wheat based and in the South it is rice based. In most cases, food is a marker of social and religious identity. Some embraced vegetarianism, due to Hindu philosophy and ahimsa and with the advent of Buddhism, this practice gained more popularity.Preparation of Eastern food is also more time consuming as the masala which is a combination of spices is made by grinding them together and making a mixed powder. In the rural areas where people are not economically stable they grind manually which is time consuming as well and is also a little tedious. In the urban areas people will use grinders to make this mix.Cooking of vegetables or meats takes much longer than it would when making western dishes.
