My favorite is probably the shower head. My local jugaadu fix, for spice wimps like me (looking at you, Beth!) is, "Ah, the bird's-eye chili again--time to reach for the mild green chilis." And I have a question: often I hear "urad dhal" referring to black lentils, but here it's referring to white ones. Are they black lentils with their hulls off, or are they two different kinds of lentils, both called "urad"? Thank you for the pictures, by the way--very helpful for such moments. PS I made the tomato chutney again last night; I've been using canned tomatoes this time of year because the fresh ones aren't good yet. Still fantastic!
Nice one! I wouldn't have thought of coriander as a main ingredient in porichakozhambu.
My favourite jugaad story is about the guy whose car broke down in the middle of the desert and he fixed it using - don't miss this - using a mixture of well chewed chewing gum and raisins! Apparently it set like cement in the dry desert heat and he made it back to safety!
