Lunch cooked by Banu using an internet recipe video as a base. The chilli
was used just for the picture and then put back
Me (In
Hindi): Please make the cauliflower bhaaji that you made the other day. It
turned out well.
Banu (our
cook & again in Hindi) with a bashful giggle: I learnt how to make it from
a video on aunty’s (my mother in law’s) phone. I then called up my daughter &
told her to check it on her phone and then tell me again how to make it. I can’t
read you see. That’s how I made it. Now I’ve bought a phone where you can see
videos. I don’t know how to use it
Me: Bhaabi
(the missus) will teach you.
Digital
India has entered our kitchen you could say & hats off to all the YouTubers
etc sharing videos out there.
I think
Banu started giving importance to the meals that she cooks for us after her
daughter spotted me on TV in a couple of cookery show episodes I had appeared
in long back on Food Food & which keep getting repeated on TV, and which
she showed them to her.
Well, as
they said in the movie, ‘whatever works!’
