I was in thutikudi for six month in 1990 and went to tiruchendur ,your video helped me to remember my days in 1990 thank you
I am presently here.
Oh Tirunelveli is my family's native place! The Shiva temple there is very famous! As soon as I saw Janakiram hotel at 04:44, I started getting very excited. They serve some of the best south Indian food in Tirunelveli. Tirunelveli is a land blessed by the perennial Tamiraparani river. It is an important centre of spirituality and culture for us Tamilians.
PS you missed the OG iruttukadai [dark shop] halwa. It is called so because the shop is open only for a few hours in the evening. The shop is right opposite the main entrance of Nellaiappar temple. Interestingly iruttukadai was started by a man called Bijli Singh. This halwa used to be prepared as a nutritional supplement for the horses of Pudukkottai samasthan. Once the monarchy system was abolished, the halwa recipe was modified and sold for human consumption. The shop is still owned by the Singh family.
Avangalakku yaarume sollala iruttukadai halwa enga kedaikum
Thanks for the information brother. I will surely taste the halwa if and when I visit Tirunelveli.
Sir, I am Ambarish and I follow your channel and watch all of your travels with my family all the time. I am a native of Chennai and my ancestral native is Kallidaikurichi in Tirunelveli District. A few months ago I came to Tirunelveli for the first time with my family and visited the famous Nellaiappar Temple and also Sankarankovil which is 65 km from Tirunelveli. Request you to visit Tirunelveli town another time and not miss both the temples and also the best Halwa shop ever, the "Iruttukadai Halwa".
Thank you sir for all your videos. 😊
Good thing in your vlogs is you enjoy each and everything including food and all places which makes viewers feel happy and refreshed.i like tamilnadu because of its rich culture.i resided in madurai when i was small girl for 3 years
Shri Harish Bali ji, Arulmigu Nellaippar Kovil (Bhagavan Nellaippar Mandir) dedicated to Bhagavan Shiva is a magnificent temple with an amazingly excellent and marvellous architecture and intricate carvings made in Dravidian Architecture of Shilpa Shastra unfortunately it is less known to people other than localities of Tirunelveli. Thank you very much for introducing it through your RUclips Channel.
V nice n amazing video 😊👌God bless you and your team 🙏

नमस्कार हरीश जी 🙏 जय श्री राम 🙏 जय हिन्द 🇮🇳 जय भारत 🇮🇳
इतना बड़ा फ़ूल बाज़ार देखकर आनंद अनुभव होता है।
वहां का वेजिटेरियन खान-पान के लिए और आप जहां भी विजि़ट करो वहां की थोड़ी बहुत जानकारी अवश्य दे 🙏👍👌❤️💪🇮🇳💪
Namskar sir ji ham italy me rehte hamne aapki sari videos dekhte hai hame bohat achi lagti hai ese lagta hai ham b aapke sath india guum rahe ho aap jesi video koi nai bnata thanks ji.
A correction. Poppadum and appalam are two different foods. Poppadum is made of udad dal and contains baking soda. It puffs up when deep fried. Appalam is made from a mixture of grain and dal. Usually bigger in size and does not puff up when deep fried. The taste is also different.
Thanks for this information
Oops forgot oooooòòoooooooooooo😅oooooooooo😅😅ooooooooooooooooooop986p@@visa2explore

One gentleman has explained about PAPPADAM ( POPPADUM !) ( PAUPPADUM ) and APPALAAM.
Today for commercial benefits and introduction of English in our day today communication, names in advertisements have changed.
Please Google search for differences in SODIUM CARBONATE nd sodium BI carbonate ( BAKING SODA AND BAKING POWDER)
Then you will find the third classification called PAPPAD KHAR.If you search you will know that PAPPAD KHAR is a natural product from ALKALINE WATERED RIVERBEDS which chemically a combination of SODIUM BI CARB AND SODIUM CARB....plus additional flavouring agents from plants.
PAPPADAM Is a Kerala Malayalam word In south. PAPPADAM was a cottage industry by ladies of KONKANIES( GSBs) all over India.. and spread in MAHARASHTRA GOA AND GUJARAT KARNATAKA AND VERY RECENTLY IN Tamilnadu.
Ingredients for pappadam is URAD FINE POWDER, PAPPAD KHAR SOLUTION( WATER ÷ COMMON SALT SMALL QUANTITY AND FILTERED AND ST0RED AFTER BOILING AND COOLING)
FOR SOREADING A BIT OF RICE PIWDER MAY BE USED SO MOIST PAPPADS DO NOT STICK EACH OTHER. PAPPADAM SHOULD NOT BE SUN DRIED TOO MUCH MAKE IT HARD PLASTIC SHEET . Slightly foldable dryness is best..consume before it gets fungus or bad smell.
Now ,APPALAM is TAMIL BRAHMIN VERSION. INGRED7ENTS SAME URAD DALL FLOUR FINE. BUT INSTED OF "" PAPPAD KHAR" only common sea salt brine is added.NO BAKING SODA OR BAKING POWDER ( ORIGINALLY).
But now some producers do add to make tiny puffings.
Britishers confused the name PAPPADAM for APPALAM and Americans called it LENTIL CRYSPIES.
TODAYS COMMERCIAL PRODUCERS MAKE 200 VAR7ETIES OF A FUSION generally called PAPPAD and using every vegetable and colour and by most lentils and starches.
CARROT..BEATROOT..TAPIOCCA..SWEET POTATO..WHITE PITATO, JACK FRUIT, SABU DANA, RICE, CORN, OATS, DIFFERENT SPICES AND PULSES.
SO, KERALA PAPPADAM has to be specially mentioned if you want the item to puff like a ball( like POORI OR BATHURA ) and appalam is a stretched thick leathery but crisp non aromatic product.( A bit bland)
Very informative.. what I like is simple clothes of host and Harish ji is always eager to know new things
Dear Harish ji , आपने इस व्हिडिओ मे coffee की हिस्ट्री बताई कर्नाटक सिरीज का वो व्हिडिओ मुझे याद है. दुसरी बात आपने थर्मल पावर प्लांट के बारे में अच्छे तरह से जानकारी दी है. टोटली व्हेरी नाईस व्हिडिओ. (कैलास कुदळे. पुणे.महाराष्ट्र.)
हलवा का टेक्स्चर बहुत ही लाजवाब है😊😊 , क्या खुब❤❤। आप का हर एक tour बहुत कुछ जानकारी से लेस होता है, सच मे बहुत ही असुकता के साथ हम इंतज़ार करते हैं😊😊। Really great experience with this episode👍👍. हमारे ओडिशा के कोयला जाता है जान के खुशी हुई। Very much informative video👍👍

Beautiful flower market and appreciate the intelligence of the local to have accommodated your request to speak in your language Harishji, you travel a lot I am just curious to know how many languages have you picked up by now.

Periyar ( Periyor) is a ptominent leader of tamilnadu.
Hi Harish, nice vlog of Thirunelveli & Thoothukudi in TN. The papad is called appaLam in Tamil as you mentioned and it is pronounced with a short "a" and strong "la", a letter that does not exist in Hindi.
I think you mean Retroflex La
Mast 😊
Namak se yaad aya.. sir
U must visit.. kutch and dhordo village (gujarat) which was shown in 26th jan rally as well as it is unesco heritage. Salt production is great and u should cover it😄😃✌🏻

Bus station ka nam Periyar isliye hai kyunki Ramasvami Periyar South India ke bahot bade Social leader or reformer the.

Excellent presentation!
Got to know lots of information about southern parts of TN, especially flower market, Thoothukudi, Tirunelveli.
That Pongal and Halwa is really yummy and delicious.
Did that Pongal have onion in it ?
Thank You Harish Ji 🎉
Not so sure regarding onion
Thanks
Pongal does not have onion in it. The usual ingredients used to temper are jeera, peppercorns, hing, cashew and curry leaves. Some people also like to add a slit green chilli for an extra layer of spice. And ghee should only be used.
❤❤❤❤ aur bhi acche acche video banaaiye sar badhai ho. 10:15 episode.
In Tuticorin, you get macron sweet. It just melts in the mouth and very tasty too
Missed
Halwa came to Tirunelveli when Rajputs from Rajasthan came and settled here. Namkeens and sweets prepared by them are sold in shops called Lala Mittai kadai. The tradition continues.
