Making them at home is not super hard with the correct ingredients and an inexpensive tool, the idli steamer. I am lucky to live in a town with a largish South Indian immigrant population and two Indian groceries. I don't have an idli steamer because I make them so infrequently, so I steam them in little ramekins I already own. I've found great recipes for all kinds of Indian foods at the websites Dassana's Recipes and Spice Cravings.

(I'm a vegetarian, husband's a vegan) but I feel the world should eat meat like how India eats meat, in combination with so many wonderful ingredients. Why is meat left out. Is the creator vegetarian?!

I think the restaurant you ordered from really toned down the flavors of Bisibelibhaat for the Western pallette. Traditionally, Bisibelibhaat is super tangy, spicy, hot with red-dried chillies/chilly powder. There is also a mild-mildest sweetness, coz, of course, there has to be a balance.But usually its 'in your mouth spicy-tangy'

Hey Beryl! It was great sharing my favorite foods with you! Super glad you like the best part of the meal- dessert! 🙆‍♂️😁

If you think the badam halwa is sweet, then you would hate the Tirunelveli or iruttu kada (dark store) halwa. It made using wheat flour, jaggery and ghee. It is usually served hot on a plantain leaf. The North Indian sweet dish that is closest in comparison is the Kada prashad of Amritsar. One south India desert that I think you would enjoy is Bobbatlu. It’s also called as Holige/ obbatu in Kannada, poli in Tamil and puran poli in marathi. It is sort of like sweet paratha with stuffing that consists of lentils cooked in jaggery syrup, with small coconut pieces added to it for some texture. Give it a try next time.

you should do Ugyhur cuisine, they deserve to be seen and heard and food is one way to do it!

I have gunpowder differently with idli and dosai. For dosa, I mix it with adequate amount of gingelly oil to make it to a thick spreadable consistency, then dip the dosa in it. For idlis, i spread a drop of ghee or oil on the idli and coat the idli with the podi.

11:36 The key to getting the dosa right is to keep the temperature of the pan low. If your pan gets too hot, your batter will dry up before you can spread it, and hence 'tearing it'. Especially if you are using a cast iron pan. Sprinkle a little bit of water in the pan when it get too hot to lower the temperature. Edit: Maybe we can have another video for not- too sweet Indian sweets...They are there Beryl.

Loved the episode, Beryl. Next time when you want idlis with Gunpowder', melt 1 teaspoon ghee in a glass bowl in the microwave and put 1 or 1/2 teaspoon of gunpowder in it. Heat for another 30-40 seconds to heat it and release the flavours. Then put it on warm idlis and you can taste the difference. Also, to balance the kick of the spice, keep a bowl of homemade yogurt / greek yogurt with you. Finish off with filter coffee / Nescafe. Bon Epetite.

Hey beryl! The gun powder is eaten a little differently... you add the ghee to the powder and stir it till it becomes liquidy. You could also add sesame seed oil. And, it is a LIL less dry this way! :) (Also, since you like idlis you should definitely try Kanchipuram Idlis, they are idlis that have pepper and a couple of other spices and ghee, right there in the batter! It is a little fat-high so it is not eaten very often)

i would love to see an episode on chinese food. and not american chinese food but authentic chinese food. because often times there’s things on the menu at chinese restaurants that i’m hesitant to try because I have no clue what they are. i would love some more insight on what to actually order from chinese restaurants because i’m over just sesame chicken and egg rolls!

I love this video! Thank you for giving a shout out to South Indian food! FYI, rava dosa is like 50x easier and faster than traditional dosa to make. It's something you could easily do at home, and it's not fermented, so you can make it in like 30 mins.

Nice. You can probably do cuisines from different states of India since every state has it own unique variety.

I hope you have tried Medu Vada... I am actually a bit shocked it wasn't recommend. Crisp on the outside, pillowy on the inside with a sublime taste! Its a huge South favourite across India!

I'm waiting with great anticipation for the lime episode! We winter in southern Mexico, where basically nobody has heard of a lemon (you have to go to Costco or Walmart and they don't even have them all the time). People drink limeade rather than lemonade, and the lime sorbet is to die for! Oh yeah, and has anybody heard of sour orange?! It's a huge part of the cuisine here, especially combined with annato seeds (a.k.a. achiote).

I love plantain, I love bhaji, I am very excited to learn that you can combine the two!

Yeah south india has by far the greatest breakfast items and varieties in the world . They are incredible

There is so much more to South Indian breakfasts. Good luck to try all of them. My personal favorite is Pongal and sambar vada.

I ALWAYS mix a little Indian dessert into my chai/coffee! No need for sugar! Indian dessert is so sweet and dissolves nicely. My fav is the chai and kheer /ras malai milk combo! But gulab jamun syrup and the halwa you showed sounds good too! Try it next time!

NGL the south Indian in me was super excited but I've expected more like some curries or corn rotis from southern part of AP. And few foods from Kerala like the coconut fish curry. they're so underrated and I hope you get to try them sometime.

I am so pleased to see South Indian represented. I spent my entire childhood there and there is nothing quite like it. I love it so much. Some excellent choices. (Also Chennai Represent!)

Good idlis are not supposed to be dry at all. They go down real easy by themselves. Ideally they would be pillow soft and really light. However, they are really hard to get right. The batter can be pretty temperamental 😅

re making dosa from batter - I've struggled on anything that isn't cast iron cookware - stone cookware and some other nonstick surfaces seem to really create a mess where the batter clings to the pan (ironically).

saravana bhavan is my go to place for south indian food in nyc . if you havent visited yet then you definately should!/ its on 26th and lexington ave after watching the video i m craving for paper masala dosa :P
