    Nayan: What do you mean by,” good option for poor people”? It costs the same and tastes the same! Rich or poor- very delicious🤗

    Patrode dishes made of fresh leaves grown in the rain soaked Male Nadu soil are one of the best tasting ones on this planet! I have been eating and enjoying them for the past many decades far away in my adopted land.!

    Pathrode from colocasia leaves. Have to cut off the stems in leaves also( causes itch in some people). Jackfruit leaves are used to wrap jackfruit, rice, grated coconut and jaggery .

    When I was in elementary school, there was a poem "Swatantra Bharatha munnade". When I was reading it at home, my grandmother was saying "Swatantra Bharatha munnade, Aaati Sona Pothrade".
