When me and my sister were kids, my parents told us to make a sign of the cross on our forehead every time we passed a church, whether its Catholic or not. We didn't know temples and mosques were very different, so we did it in front of them too. My parents smiled and never stopped us. I lived on a street with all of them, we went to school together, and we all played together, and celebrated each other's festivals. I ate food in Muslim houses on Ramzan, ate food in Hindu houses on Vishu, and they came to ours on Christmas. I went to temples and mosques often. Heck I even had Jewish, Buddhist and Sikh friends growing up. I had a Mahabharata, Ramayana and Quran in my home. My grandma taught me Hindu poetry, and I woke up to azaan in the morning. But my family are conservative Syrian Christians. That's my Kerala.
I am non veg, from Kerala. My Dad, a 100% pure veg have never told me that I should not have non veg or only eat veg. We have whatever we like and we enjoy it. 😍
Vir Singhvi made a worthy point about kerala, that is the Co existence of various religious faiths. As a Christian raised up in kerala, I never felt I am eating a different cuisine from other communities. We all live together and enjoying this life more meaningfully. Kerala sadya is an embodiment of our diversity.
@@shilpagandhi28 how does beef connect with diversity?? Generally all people in India eat the same food irrespective of religion according to the climate. It isn't just India but the whole world. Some people eat something more and some people avoid some other things. That's it. A Christian, muslim, hindu, communist, naxal etc enjoy the plum cake, payasam, pizza etc even if it relates to a different culture. It is foolhardy to avoid such delicacies.
Chill out ppl. I am a vegetarian from Kerala(yes, we do exist), there are many things in Kerala beyond beef and parotta. So don't worry it is not as if people will force feed you beef here. If you find people mentioning beef everywhere, it is because ppl from other states started mocking Malayalis for eating beef. When you attack someone for nothing, it becomes part of your identity. To non-veg non-beef eaters, If someone insults you for eating fish, how would you feel? And fellow vegetarians, how would you feel if some vegan calls you disgusting for drinking milk. So let's stop judging each other and leave the job to PETA. So moving on, ppl from other states, if you wanna be rebellious, come to Kerala and enjoy beef with parotta. Many come from Tamilnadu just to break the taboo, lol. If you don't want beef, but eat non-veg, enjoy the fish and sea foods of Kerala. My Tamil friends always enjoy it(and avoid beef). If you are vegetarian, remember there is still a 3% veg population in Kerala, so while you will have to search a bit, there are still pure veg restaurants available, especially in Kochi and Trivandrum. Enjoy our veg sadya, enjoy our banana chips, enjoy Pazhampori, enjoy our jackfruit based dishes, enjoy our palada Payasam. So welcome folks to Kerala and have a good time here.
Varun Raghav well said . I am a non vegetarian who eats most of the meat items . But people do forget that there are a lot of veggie options in Kerala . In fact you eat from TamilNadu in a veg restaurant sometimes the items are like one poriyal +lots of curries . Could be that’s how they like . But in Kerala you have diff thorans, mezhukupuratti, diff curries and a wide variety of snacks cum breakfast items which are all veg . Somehow with all the attention given to beef I feel Kerala veggie options are somehow so underrated . Go for a Hindu marriage and be surprised at the options
The best thing about Kerala is no one judge you by what you eat. You eat what you want meaning whats legal by law. And Kerala has its best in everything. Non Veg, you have some of the best , Veg also you have the best. Personally after eating both the Thalassery Biriyani not even the very original one and the Hyderabadi Biriyani , I felt the thalassery biriyani as so authentic and tasty , rice is so soft and with the right amount of spices. Hyderabadi Biriyani on the contrary felt a bit dry and too spicy. Some of the Biriyanis from other part of South are really fake .No offense here. And now take the veggie dishes, they are so good and unique. I saw some comments about Veg options. Either these are the new age kids who are feasting only on Non Veg. Kerala's 2 main festivals Onam and Vishu are only Veg except in some parts of kerala . Right from the Morning starting with your Idli and chutney, Dosha and Kadala or Sambar, Appam and Kadala / Veg Stew , Puttu with kadala / Green gram + papad , Elayappam, KumbiliAppam, Idiyiappam ,and the list goes on like that. Come to the lunch options with Rice, Moru curry, Kootu Curry, Thorans , Mezhukupuratti, Kaalan, Ooalan, Aviyal , Inchi Curry , Puli Inchi, Payasams etc. Not sure if there is any place with such a wide variety of food habits.
Dil KA Gujaratis ‘ are very open minded n fun loving people... that is why” Rangilo Gujrat” Me too Gujrati, married to a Keralite n I have to say food from Kerala is delicious n healthy... I easily adapted! But Only Veg😋😇
Also as a 100% non-vegetarian, there is one special day, we only eat 100% vegetarian in our Christian home. Since the days from my grandparents and probably before. That is on Onam. The traditional Onam sadhya served in banana leafs and sitting on the floor. Great parenting, great culture!
When he was talking about pepper you showed bell pepper but I suppose he meant black pepper. Because the initial colonists came to India for black pepper as far as I know. It was even referred to as black gold. Please correct me if I am wrong.
It was equally fun to watch the anchors silent reluctance to accept Vir‘s opinion on Kerala food. Some times, you could read a person‘s mindset from even a small reaction, isn’t it! 😊
@Jay Dev why this all bjp Shit talking without identity.. With no profile.. With not even a real name... So I don't want to talk with a coward.. Or a bastard..
Off late I see this Kerala eugolizing...frankly it's anything but a genuine love for my beautiful state. Pay a lil attention and u LL realize the subtle messaging. A proud Hindu vegetarian Malayali.
One sensible keralite ..you dont get to see them very often although they like to boast about the literacy rate which is high but not 100 % .. having travelled from the northern tip to the southern tip and literacy actually means being able to sign your name and not necessarily be able to read it.. a strong number especually from villages fall in that category.. although I would agree about the food .. it's so simple that you can actually taste the veggies you eat unlike most parts which are masala heavy
@@amar6847 lol, nice try. But even if you don't consider the literacy rate, Kerala have the highest mean & expected years of schooling of any Indian state. And mostly rural district of Kottayam have the highest expected years of schooling for females in the country, higher than city states/UTs like Delhi or Chandigarh. I am not exactly sure whether you'll understand what those terms mean- Sanghis are good at rhetoric, not analysing data.
@@amar6847 That is not true. Kerala has the lowest rate of primary school dropout, and the highest per capita completed school years. All this turn into social gains approaching true literacy (not just the ability of 'signing one's name' as literacy is understood in other states). Often people who substitute politics for data and context try not to see this.
@@mr.kochappan2418 Cheta, am an OBC from Kerala. Arks contention was not to put any malayalee down. Every state contributes something valuable to India. Kerala has its own beautiful contribution. However look at Self sustenance of Kerala inspite of the high literacy rate there. For years Kerala has been literate.. Not just today. Have employed people from Kerala and found them extremely sharp. BUT... what else have you done with the literacy. Is there any revenue generating mechanism other than Tourism. Did we build a Dubai or a Las Vegas there. Whatever beauty nature has provided, we are leveraging those resources. From 1980s the gulf boom started. Sadly only 5% of those were white collared. Most of them worked and are still working as labourers there - janitors, cleaners, plumbers, mechanics, drivers.. Basically unskilled, semi skilled workers. Inspite of unemployment we get people from Bangladesh and UP to do our menial work. Why!! all these educated people who can go to wash an Arab's rear can't pick up shovels in their own home town. There is something tactically wrong with the educates ones in Kerala and i'd put it down to Arrogance of their literacy. Fact is that they are lazy and egoistical. This is not the case with the rest of India. When the going gets tough the tough gets going in the rest of India. Over and above all such useless good for nothing stooges and arselickers like Mr. Sanghi will stroke the fire of divisiveness in our people by saying that state is better, this state is better. Such jerks. Our keralaites will dance to his divisiveness agenda... So much for their education.. Sad. Sorry cheta for the long response.
Many of us eat things we like using the best spices in South Asia. We eat and love, pork and beef. Unfortunately sanghis and jihadis couldn't comprehend it.
We have sangs communist sudaps congress every kind.but we eat together .we dont mind in politics of what we eat.where the food politics are core thing in other part of india
Pls avoid sanghi community or rewrite as hindu muslim christian community. We keralites never take Sanghi community together. And the want partiality in what people eat. The brings up discrimination. So pls exclude them for good sake
Oranges ( narangya is the word used by Portuguese is the word from ‘ narang’ ,sugar, cotton (Kapas) is from India. Dry red chilies was used in Rajasthan, AP before Kerala got from Portuguese.Tandoor was there in mohejodaro excavated by Mortimer wheeler ....now tried to put under wraps just like our number made to be arabic
I think they used a wrong picture for the bit about pepper. What the interviewee meant must have been black pepper (piper nigrum), not capsicum. Black pepper was the luxury spice from the "Orient" that the Portuguese and Spanish were so eagerly trying to get in the 15-16th century. Bell peppers (capsicum) are from the "New World".
I sometimes wonder when people like Vir almost implies that we had nothing here except for a few things and that we often in most parts survived on grass.. Research a little more and one will find that india had a farming culture of more than 15000 years and with all the spices you found in the country we just didnt know what to do with it .. and had to depend on the portugese , brits and Dutch for some good food.. every state has it's own variety of chilly that was indigenous and it's not only pepper we relied on .
When he implies that we had nothing here, he means that indian culture over the years has evolved and grown amalgamating the influences of traders and invaders bringing their food and culture to us. Not only cuisine but also religious practices. Till Greek brought idols and statue architecture, Hindus worshipped elements like Havan. Idol worship was introduced to India by Greek (ref: Devdutt Pattanaik). When India boasts of oldest civilisation, we forget there were similar civilisations elsewhere in the world too like Mayan civilisation of South America. Only thing is our civilisation survived it to date. Theirs perished. In the process of survival our civilisation adopted to the external influences and evolved. May be that adoptive and receptive nature of our culture is the reason why it survived. Food for thought.
@4:41 wrong peppers are shown. Should be black pepper. Also, a very important point missed is that black pepper quickly got replaced by all these introduced peppers because of cost! Black pepper is expensive and not abundant like chilli peppers. Another Indian pepper , called pipli pepper (thippili in Tamil) completely disappeared from the Indian kitchens from the late 1800s . Looks like mini pine cones. Used only in traditional medicine now as its cousin tailed pepper (kebab chini) but still used in North African cuisine!
Im a Malayali who is gradually avoiding meat items slowly over a period of time to become a fully vegetarian. There are number of people im friends with who are vegetarian, infact in my early days i used to joke them about the taste which they will never get, but as years went on and became more nature conscious, i came to realise its better for me to be vegetarian and for the nature. I respect everyones food choices.
For those who want pure Kerala veg which will blow your mind ,please visit Mother's veg plaza in Trivandrum.Im not kidding,it's worth the time and money spent.
No. Christianity began in Europe and India about the same time (roughly, a decade or two later in India). A disciple of Christ came in Kerala and so it was pretty much same time.
Sure many came from middle east. In 345 AD. But majority of Syrian Christians in Kerala is of Native people. By the way St. Thomas never came to Kerala. It s just a myth.
@@surabhiljose Began in Europe about the same time? Completely false. Christianity reached the English Isles or Rome in the later of 1st Century. Chrisitianity reached Kerala much earlier and hence the reason why our prayers and rituals have heavy influence from Rabbinic Judaism because we follow the earliest expressions of the faith.
@Jerry Varghese Nevertheless. It is highly probable that Christians from parts of Persia or the Levant region of Iraq/Syria had moved to Kerala and mixed with the existing Christians residing population. phylogeographer.com/some-syrian-christians-of-india-descend-from-roman-era-levantine-fgc64029/ I dont like to racially profile but it is also evident from the features Malayalis possess, unlike most southern states in India. Malayalis are much more light skinned, taller etc. Malayalis and Kashmiris are the 2nd tallest people in India after Punjabis.
Kerala has best cuisine in India because of the understanding, tolerance, and adaptive mentality. We dont kill others coz their eating practices contradict our belief😅.
@@sanujsunny8972 Newzealand is one of the most peaceful country in the world.... Last year one crazy racist man killed 51 people. But Newzealand is still an awsome place to live in, even under this horrible situation. What I mean is a place cannot be judged by some isolated incidents. Kerala is not perfect, but far better than other states.
Can't believe But Sanghvi mistook Bell pepper for pepper corns. Even Bell Pepper is an import into India from Latin America. Only the pepper corns are native to India.
@@RK-hi7zz well it's 'Probably '. But when we see ancient Indian recipes in the temples they used Tamarind, not tomatoes for sourness. Yes many dishes many also used raw mangoes. Similarly they used Pepper and not chillies in ancient recipes. Tamarind is aboriginal to India. Weather it's native or not is questionable...
@@swatichatterjee1513 I didn't mean it was recently brought to India or anything like that. It is botanically speaking that is. Like carrots are supposed to have originated from Afghanistan , apples from central Asia etc. That is going way back ! But Tamarind is definitely part of Indian cuisine. I agree.

@4:41 wrong peppers are shown. Should be black pepper. Also, a very important point missed is that black pepper quickly got replaced by all these introduced peppers because of cost! Black pepper is expensive and not abundant like chilli peppers. Another Indian pepper , called pipli pepper (thippili in Tamil) completely disappeared from the Indian kitchens from the late 1800s . Looks like mini pine cones. Used only in traditional medicine now as its cousin tailed pepper (kebab chini) but still used in North African cuisine!
Wow what a mouth watering Interview
Puttu, kadala, Pappadam. Wow..
Why does she gave that expression when he said" Its an hard one but i would say Kerala"
5:18
Pepper meant black pepper right...in Kerala "kurumulak"...foreigners came for black pepper...
Kerala food is best becuase it made in coconut oil , coconut tree was brought by lord Vishnu from vaikuntha loka so it's a heavenly food
Bhayankara... മനുഷ്യൻ തുണി കണ്ടുപിടിച്ചതിനു ശേഷം മാത്രം തുണിയുടുത്ത ദൈബങ്ങൾ
Haha. No. Wrong, now fuck off.
where is vaikuntha , so that we can bring some more from there and cultivate in whole India
please leave our coconut , it has no religion
മൈര് അതിലും കൊണ്ട് മതം കുത്തികേറ്റി
4:41 picture shown is capsicum, but he is referring to black pepper.
Wikipedia says bell pepper is native to Mexico.
every thing about Kerala is #Gold
Yes for some reason🌚✨
Not bell pepper.... It's Black pepper .the black gold
Im a Malayali who is gradually avoiding meat items slowly over a period of time to become a fully vegetarian. There are number of people im friends with who are vegetarian, infact in my early days i used to joke them about the taste which they will never get, but as years went on and became more nature conscious, i came to realise its better for me to be vegetarian and for the nature.
I respect everyones food choices.
me too, slowly , avoided chicken first
@@rameshpn9992 i avoided everything except chicken
He didn't really bust any myths here he was just generalizing origins of ingredients and dishes
For those who want pure Kerala veg which will blow your mind ,please visit Mother's veg plaza in Trivandrum.Im not kidding,it's worth the time and money spent.
True
Proud mallu here🥰
Kerala represent !
Amazing! Now we need experts go tell us what tastes good and what doesn't. And I always used to think it's a matter of personal preference and palate.
Porotta and beef. My favorite
Puja where do you buy your clothes.... these are beautiful 💖
Ritu Shukla haha thanks just here and there what am wearing here is good old @uniqlo
@@PujaTalwar : thanks 😊💖 . Love them.
Kerala ♥️
Kerala👍
Earliest Christians in the world " Syrian Christians" in Kerala
Didn't they come from Syria
No. Christianity began in Europe and India about the same time (roughly, a decade or two later in India). A disciple of Christ came in Kerala and so it was pretty much same time.
Following Syrian order of service in prayer. Indians by origin
Sure many came from middle east. In 345 AD.
But majority of Syrian Christians in Kerala is of Native people.
By the way St. Thomas never came to Kerala. It s just a myth.
@@surabhiljose Began in Europe about the same time? Completely false. Christianity reached the English Isles or Rome in the later of 1st Century. Chrisitianity reached Kerala much earlier and hence the reason why our prayers and rituals have heavy influence from Rabbinic Judaism because we follow the earliest expressions of the faith.
@Jerry Varghese Nevertheless. It is highly probable that Christians from parts of Persia or the Levant region of Iraq/Syria had moved to Kerala and mixed with the existing Christians residing population.

I dont like to racially profile but it is also evident from the features Malayalis possess, unlike most southern states in India. Malayalis are much more light skinned, taller etc. Malayalis and Kashmiris are the 2nd tallest people in India after Punjabis.
Black pepper is Indian , the video shows bell pepper as Indian ,wtf?
Stone one screwed up the image for pepper. He meant the black pepper. :)
He is very learned!
Personally I find Kerala food to be sweet (not like bengal tho)...or maybe that's only the palakkad or kasargod food.
Vir has started looking North Korean villan in a bond movie.
They guy says original pepper and not chilly pepper.
Goodtimes: Show them a picture of chilli pepper.
Wrong photo of pepper, Goodtimes Editor. Black Pepper.
Chilies were unheard in Kerala , black pepper was the staple chillie
We are the best #kerala
മലയാളി ഡാ 😍
Sanskrit name of jalebi is soshkali.
thanks , in some places it is jagri
Jalebi is not Indian though
4.38 ..Is it what (which was shown in the picture) he meant by 'Pepper'?
Hemanth Mohan you are right. That is not what he meant. He was taking about black pepper
He said pepper and they showed bell pepper(capsicum), I thought british came for the black pepper?
Well done Puja! Interesting video
It thanks
I think by pepper he means black pepper.Europeans came for black pepper.
Yes baby
We say capsicum instead of pepper
Kerala has best cuisine in India because of the understanding, tolerance, and adaptive mentality.
We dont kill others coz their eating practices contradict our belief😅.
We were the same people that killed a tribal person who was starved. Never forget
@@sanujsunny8972 Newzealand is one of the most peaceful country in the world.... Last year one crazy racist man killed 51 people. But Newzealand is still an awsome place to live in, even under this horrible situation.
What I mean is a place cannot be judged by some isolated incidents.
Kerala is not perfect, but far better than other states.
Eye opener
Black pepper is indian not bell pepper
i slammed my forehead when they showed capsicum when he said pepper(cause he meant black pepper and not pepper as in the capsicum)
Can't believe But Sanghvi mistook Bell pepper for pepper corns. Even Bell Pepper is an import into India from Latin America. Only the pepper corns are native to India.
Really? Ummmm.. My friend cannot see my comment though.
@@anonanon6225 this guy is nuts , he's so wrong about Indian food and even the serving portion thing he wrote an article on.
I never ate beef before 2014. I am a Malayali 😂
4:43 I think he means black pepper corns not bell pepper.
Indians using chilly long before Portuguese coming to India , this guy have bang 🤣🤣
They showed Bell Peppers instead of Pepper Corns
I guess even tamarind is native to India, just like pepper...
I have read that tamarind is native to Africa!
@@RK-hi7zz well it's 'Probably '. But when we see ancient Indian recipes in the temples they used Tamarind, not tomatoes for sourness. Yes many dishes many also used raw mangoes. Similarly they used Pepper and not chillies in ancient recipes. Tamarind is aboriginal to India. Weather it's native or not is questionable...
@@swatichatterjee1513 I didn't mean it was recently brought to India or anything like that. It is botanically speaking that is. Like carrots are supposed to have originated from Afghanistan , apples from central Asia etc. That is going way back ! But Tamarind is definitely part of Indian cuisine. I agree.
Kerala..💓
Keralites don't mix religion with food
#nanjilcuisine the base for kerala cuisine!!!
