You have to be born with a sense of humor
No one can teach you, it flows outta every pore
Seeing funny in unfunny
That tickles your chutney
Hilarious, makes you fall down chuckling to the floor...

Dish of Indian make.
Dear to all Keralite.
Dry rice and dal well soaked,
Drained and ground to fine paste, 
Dough flattened and roasted,
Delicious with chutney.
Delectable to all.

Masala dosa




Spicy veges massla wrapped in crispy crunchy roll and sambar, coconut chutney.




It's a South Indian dish my mom used to prepare at home for three of us and we used to be counting who could eat the max.

PICKLE

        Plums preserved in palatable pickles:
        I relish, cherish sweet and sour taste
        Cheery chutney alluring taste buds sensitive to sweet cum sour.
        King of dishes to take before dessert.
        Lovely to lick moistening tongue
        Ensuring fulfillment of demand of twined sweet and sour touch.

Yes autumn! With a carpet of old leaves,
dying annuals sun burnt look old.
Mist welcoming with morning gloom;
ripened fruit now hanging bold.

Oh autumn! Let me reap your bounty,
before your fruit begins to drop.
May I find pleasure in your glut
when collecting up your ripened crop.

Chutney! Relish! Sauce! And pickle!
Jelly! Marmalade! Conserve!
Prepared and stored to last forever -
this autumn harvest I preserve....

With coriander cumin turmeric
basmati rice saffron and spice
onions chilli peppers
and all things nice
with chapati and chutney

but tasty is best
tandoori tikka masala
korma's a meal with zest
chicken lamb chickpeas or lentils
a dinner for two you do not hurry
allow what you've got to simmer in the pot
if you want a winner curry

I live in a country where people worship the holy cow
But there is a street food in Mumbai famously called the vada pao
It is humble food of the poor but with a big mac it can compete for sure
Many people stop by to taste it when they come for business or leisure
A ball of spicy potato dipped in gram flour and deep fried
Then put in a loaf of bread sliced open with chutney to try
A must have if you ever come to this city
If you ever miss it, it will be a real pity
