The question Kate and I seem to get most often from our friends stuck at home in the U.S. is “So how’s the food?” Our answer? Awesome. Really freaking awesome. Here, a small sampling:
Dinner: Chappati, lemon rice with lady's finger, and a tiny bit of (really spicy) mango pickle
(All photos by the [currently ravenous] Kate Lord.)
Dinner: Chappati, chicken in a mystery sauce, beets, and a pea curry
Breakfast: Masala dosa with chutni. Every time this is served, everyone does a dance. It's filled with potatoes and spices.
Breakfast: Idli (the white things) with coconut chutni and vada (the doughnut thing that does not remotely taste like a doughnut)
Puri (yum!) with chickpea curry and green things. Puri is fried in oil, making it the best bread-thing.
Breakfast: Upma with curry, a hardboiled egg, and tea
Lunch: Chappati, rice with dahl, and cabbage.
All meals, all hours: Tea!
All meals: Adorable.
