Comfort foods are not only delicious but also instantly make us happy by reducing the effects of stress hormones. Most of these foods are sweet and starchy, which helps our bodies produce serotonin, thereby helping us relax and calm down.

"We offer you dishes from around the world that will warm your heart and be a great addition to a good gathering of friends and family," writes the NewsBytes website.

Spicy and flavorful kottu roti from Sri Lanka

A popular Sri Lankan comfort food, kottu roti is a spicy and flavorful vegetarian dish usually made with shredded roti, vegetables, onions, chili peppers, and scrambled eggs. Curry sauce and some chili flakes are added on top. Sometimes, meat is added to the dish to enhance the flavor. Roti kotta is made with a flatbread called Godhambara roti.

Cheesy and gooey grilled American cheese

A classic comfort food in the United States, grilled cheese is a simple, crispy hot sandwich with two slices of bread and a layer of gooey and creamy cheese between them. This dish, which originated in the United States in the 1920s, satisfies cravings for salt, carbohydrates, and dairy with minimal effort. It can be eaten with tomato soup on a cold winter evening.
