Some heart warming moments here! 🌼

🍃🍃 The aurora of setting up a pickling milieu on a timbered layout, scrubbed and sun dried for creating an axenic center for chopping up the ingredients for my precious Magali beru and Mavina shunti pickle with a touch of Bettada Nellikai (Indian gooseberry) and Hagalkai (Bitter gourd). Priceless!

Bellada Kaafi is one lovely beverage that elders w

Bellada Kaafi is one lovely beverage that elders woul make. I have hardly seen someone make it, albeit, the stories of my paternal ancestral home described about a jaggery syrup was made first and then the coffee making process was continued. The only lucky people in the house were the elderly men, as in, the husbands and brothers in law who would get to sip on their golden beverages of energy every day. The little notorious and rampant children of the house never got to relish that wonderful coffee. (I chuckled when I heard this. Children love tasting coffee in fact!) This would indeed happen in my paternal ancestral home decades ago and it was a joint family of 20 to 25 folks! So you can imagine how hard it was to brew the Bellada Kaafi afterall. A story narrated here and there in bits and pieces by my father.

Making a lota of filter coffee isn't rocket science but a good filter coffee is something that every aspiring filter coffee lover has to appreciate. A freshly brewed decoction on one side (which is again another side of it - I'll probably come to that a few days later?) and bubbling milk on the fire.

....and then you stream out a little decoction into your lota and then add the bubbling milk into the same lota to make it blend and dance with the decoction. Add jaggery as you please and start frothing up the coffee with a dabari. Pour out and in.
.
.
.
.
No reheating please! That's a spoiler.
Then sip it when you are at ease. Always! I love it strong, less sweet and fragrant.

Feels obsolete to be writing again from a silken c

Feels obsolete to be writing again from a silken cloudy town, reminding myself of something called writing about food! A few weeks of draping my dreams a little more, staying quiescent and nurturing my energies with a cheerful garden by my side that is sprouting fresh leaves and produces, I could hold up my heart and bask in a lot of inspiration. My heart cruised through a feeling of solace while picking up fresh peachy tomatoes and beans that are so sweet and succulent. I think I have never enjoyed urban farming for vegetables this much ever in my life! ❤️ Clinging to my impulse for cooking with fresh vegetables has been so rewarding...

.... and then

.... I ventured into pickling and pounding a big batch of some fragrant puliogare powder. There I am, pickling wedges of the fresh heralekai that arrived at our doorstep. Thanks to our regular cycle pulling vendor who picks the best for me. Topped it up today with some extra juice of limes, helping the wedges to soak-in in the comfort of the citrus-salty concoction, a preservative of sorts. I love citrus pickles and hope to soak some bitter oranges too in the coming months.

Uppu Puli Dose, as how Amma would make it years ag

Uppu Puli Dose, as how Amma would make it years ago, maybe two decades ago I think! She'd make the ele kosu dosa, roast it further for my liking, and don it with extra butter so I'd put together some additional kilos but, pathetically, her efforts were to some extent, all in vain. I find these attached memories to recipes are so beautiful. There's something more beautiful about this recipe if you demand. Until you deeply look at the method of making this dosa, you cannot fathom how exquisitely this recipe amalgamates all of the six tastes of Ayurveda. A post on this was awaiting last week when an unimaginable glitch with disorientations and the #covid dismay put blinds on all things outlined.. 🤦 Until then you can only anticipate for the detailed write up and gape at the red hued Uppu Puli Dosa.

The garden preliminary is keeping the other parts

The garden preliminary is keeping the other parts of my world buried! The little Sparrows have plundered on my greens and now I have to ransack for a system that keeps these tiny hawkers well fed with something else leaving my seedlings alone. These notorious creatures are so hungry all the time! 😄 Little did I know that sparrows love freshly sprouted methi greens. I have to redo my efforts now and make seedlings again. These allowances of nature are sometimes aggravating too along with the startling cloudbursts last night! Enough of repining about naure’s acrimony now! I have to make peace with her ways as she's been kind in most ways always. 🍃🍃

This Udupi Rasam is a salvage and more for me at this moment. 🧘 I could eat this for lunch everyday and stay jubilant!

Adding this to #rasamseries @paticheri. 😍😍

The watermelon rind dosa, a source of rich and nat

The watermelon rind dosa, a source of rich and natural citruline, that never made it to my kitchen all this while, until Navya's recipe from @konkanifoodrecipes wrote about this on her feed quite recently. I was head over heels for this delicacy from the Konkani home and it was something I couldn't help but try making it in a way to suite my requirements. We would customarily make the ash gourd dosa when there was a gourd at home but this "Kalingana Polo" is something what I call the state of the art, even though it is something that the Konkani home cooks have been practicing since generations! Some left over urad flour and extra rice left soaking for the iddiyappam batter I made recently and some watermelon rind, which I usually juice up, gave way to this filling, aromatic dosa. My regards to the whole community and the culinary masters who lived in generations through thousands of years, who have mastered and passed on the art of making the most of these natural resources of nutrition and sustainable living.

.
.
.
.

Do visit Navya's website @konkanifoodrecipes for the detailed recipe. http://www.konkanifoodrecipes.com/recipes/watermelon-dosa-kalingana-polo. Although I've made a few modifications to my recipe by way of adding a few tablespoons of leftover urad flour, the dosa vented out a beautiful fragrance throughout my home 🏡.

One of the things in the bucket list of this garde

One of the things in the bucket list of this gardener is to cultivate natural loofahs / luffa in the garden and see a resurgence of home made loofah growing all over the vines around the hothouse, rekindle and pass on this lost art! Luffa is just a basic over matured vegetable gourd growing in a vine and its looks are gorgeous as bird nests beetling from greenscapes.
.
.
.
.
.
.

Speaking of luffa gourds, it implies to 3 kinds of gourds. The acutangula (the everyday ridged gourd), the second kind of actangula i.e. also called as Var Amara (which is a smaller variety of ridge gourd, quite a rarity) and the aegyptiaca (which is called as a sponge gourd with smoother surface). All of these were first called as 'Kosthakai' in Sanskrit by Kautilya somewhere between 375 BC and 283 BC. Here and now called as Heerekai in Kannada, Thorai in Hindi, Pirkankai in Tamil, Beerakaya in Telugu and Peechinga in Malayalam! Look at the multifariousness in just the name of this distinguished humble luffa gourd.
.
.
.
.
.

On drying completely and going into seed on the vine, this gourd turns into a fibrous and sturdy sponge which is a natural source of fibre and customarily a skin exfoliator. Reforms and studies further broke down the walls and these were even brought under the Momordica family, meaning, the bitter gourd and melon vine family! Nevertheless, food gown on vines have been legendary and a very integral part of the food legacy from the ancient BCs.

Recipes cooked from jackfruit seeds are many. In t

I was just looking into this old decrepit book tha

I was just looking into this old decrepit book that was written in the 70’s, “Dictionary of Philippine folk beliefs and customs”, and it says, if one finds money on the streets, he’d be poor throughout his life and if one finds a twin jackfruit seed (Pair) in a pod (The Ovary - as mentioned in the book), the finder will get lucky in business, love and in most of his/her endeavours. Now thats something! I wonder if there ever was such a thing as a twin jackfruit seed in pod.
.
.
.
.

These tantalising seeds have been life savers in Indian and Asian cuisines ever since this fruit was sighted and eaten. Life saving even as literally as healing. Drinking liquor was a universal thing from times archaic. Folks who even had no money to buy liquor, used to make their own using festered fruits and the soldiers would drink wine seethed from sprouted grains. Even women were fond of drinking, drinking with their lovers to be precise and it did cause extreme volatility even among the sturdiest people who ever lived. Hence a number of antidotes to the heavy imbiber were discovered. One included chewing a piece of ginger immediately. One more was a concoction made from ripened jackfruit seeds, tamarind, buttermilk and gruel from boiled aged rice. So, healing in a way!
.
.
.
.

If you have read the old 50’s novel “Pather Panchali”, a book written from a child's perspective who lived in a rural setup and the hardships he had to come across in his living, (which is in my bucket list of books to read by this year) there’s a very minute mention of this life saving ingredient there again, which will stir you up if you love jackfruit seeds.
.
.
.
.

For now it's a simple Udupi recipe from these warming seeds waiting in line. 🍃🍃

The older generations have this thing to say every

My travels in recent times have never been swept w

My travels in recent times have never been swept without traversing through the Sugarcane farms in Mandya. You visit this sugar city, and your eyes can never be tired of the grassy bushes growing all over the fields. There are stories narrated of how sugarcane farms were vastly invaded by Jackals in the 19th century. When the canes were mature enough and were approaching ripeness, the crops were to be protected from Jackals. Either you throw mud into the base of the plant or keep a bowl of Jaggery water at every strategic location. Jackals hate the aroma of mud or clay and the sweet jaggery is a jackal's ever favourite food. Jackals were searched and hunted down at these deliberate points.. The rest of the family would desert the place in fear.
.
.
.
.
.

In the picture, our very own Indian Jaggery in its glory since it's discovery and this went into the engaging course with the mellow yellow Jackfruit to become an object of an enticing palate.

... extending the Pelakai / Gujje streak from wher

... extending the Pelakai / Gujje streak from where I paused and stood still extolling the charm of this beast of fruits. Plucking through the fresh Sole or the Thole, as many call it, I was reminded of how my mother would oil her hands with Coconut oil and hollow out the meat of the Jackfruit with seeds sometimes flying all over the place. She would make the most scrumptious fritters as it was her personal favourite and then, one big batch of a "Steamed Delight" which is a family favourite back in Udupi, again of which I shall write about in the coming days. But for now, this mammoth encumber has to be observed in a tranquil mode so that the agitating soul can be calmed down, of not being able to see another jackfruit until the next monsoon.

Ragi rottis, nugge soppu chutney pudi, peere chutn

Ragi rottis, nugge soppu chutney pudi, peere chutney or (the peere bajji) as we call in it my native ooru's language, bella (jaggery) and hot ghee is something I could not envisage qualifying for today's breakfast. I had to literally pull myself out of my deep dreamy slumber at 6:30 in the morning to initiate my day today. But then, there was this ridge gourd waiting for its turn! (Recipe on my stories)
.
.
.
.

Be-wildered in a world of dreams this morning after a ramble, which was rather aimless I would say, on the side of a half constructed highway yesterday at around 12 noon with lunch stuffed in steel dabbas sealed so carefully in cloth bags or the batte chilas that I conveniently call them. I had the privilege of lunching on a self-cooked satvik meal somewhere in between two endless carpets of green grasslands. And yes, evidently, the boy is a fan of my way of adventures. Of all the joys that the world has got to give me, this kind of an encounter with dame nature has given me a colossal gratification and what's not to treasure, worship and rejoice if it's something on the loops of nature. 🍂🍂

Vasudeva, you ushered in such a huge difference in

Vasudeva, you ushered in such a huge difference in how I perceive and receive circumstances. All my life I struggled to secure a belief and strode through the wrong side of the street most of the times. You came down in a form where I could see you as a sentinel making me realise how good or bad things are! You showed me the taste of the materialistic world and the spiritual world, you even showed me the three modes of the materialistic world. You were kind enough to stand by me when the heart needed to be held from falling apart. Thank you for being a guardian all this while, I find you so profound that I have named a little angel that I brought into this world after you, so I can chant "Krishna Krishna Krishna" most of my life. Oh my dear friend of Sudhama, accept my offering of your most adored Avalakki - Bella and keep showing your sparks of splendor every now and then in the journey of our lives!

Pelakai... How magnificent are you in a dark and gloomy frame, alone! I discovered that you are the most beautiful subject before pumpkins, that demands no complementary prep for a photograph. It's a melancholy that you must be put through a knife and halved today so that I can smack on your sweetness and maybe some other day I'll turn you into fritters and steamed cakes!

The comfort of baking a wheat cake at home, marble

🍃🍃 Today, some beautiful baby cabbages came

🍃🍃 Today, some beautiful baby cabbages came by, on a cycle, driven by an old vendor hollering at a tone so loud that makes homemakers in the neighborhood withdraw from every mundane task just to hit the streets and rummage through the tharkari butti fastened to the cycle for the freshest and the prime produce. Luckily there was no one to contend with me today. 😉 These beauties are the crispiest I've come across after I grew my own cabbages last year. Miniature ones steal my heart away and I just love how they easily cut through the knife and turned into thin fragments with no hassle for my rice bhaath. Wasn't quite equipped to shoot a flat lay for the #flatlayprowess but I so wish I could!
