    Please note: Coimbatore is in Tamil Nadu. I miss spoke in one part of this video because I learned of many dishes from a Kerela perspective/teacher. I wanted to make sure to correct this here.

    Roadside kalaan is a modern street food variation that originated in Coimbatore (kovai) around the mid 90s when I was growing up... the paani puri and bhel puri vendors suddenly started this culture and recipe... That's why you have the onion, cilantro, curry leaf garnish along with the crushed pani-puri puris!.... They then added dishes like odacha poori (chat with crushed puris), masala puri that has the puris with the pea gravy etc.... Coimbatore is an entrepreneurial town and the pani puri vendors are no different!

      @ hey Chef, I will hold you to your word. And will on the look out for your next India trip. Despite the abundance of food devotees on social media, I am intrigued and excited by your genuine curiosity for Indian food. I have been experimenting with our food for years too as a private obsession. But I am curious as hell about your reaction to the absolute real Indian food that I feel you haven’t yet sampled along with the mish mash my mixed upbringing has led to. Plus there are so many cultures and sub cultures of cuisine in India which most westerners haven’t even touched.
      It’s gonna be a blast. Look forward to seeing you.
