During our childhood, we had lovely family get – togethers almost every weekend; the kitchen would be the most happening place; with all hustle bustle, all the laughter, chit chat of my aunts, the cutlet making, the aromas emerging from the pressure cooker, and the elaborate spread. Beef Roast or Beef curry was always there along with Beef Cutlets/ Chicken Cutlets/ Fish Cutlets, Fish curry or Chicken fry / chicken curry and thoran, Moru curry, and crispies like Pavakka fry or Kovakkai fry. Sometimes there will be Kappa (Tapioca) or Chakka kuzhachathu (Jack fruit steamed). Tasty memories!! I am getting nostalgic again and how I wish everyone was together again like old times!!
