And since this has split, not whole, peanuts, a clever person christened it Congress kadalekai. My trick is to eat a bowl of this spicy goodness tossed with chopped onion, a chilli or two, generous amounts of fresh coriander and lime juice.

I dont live that far away from bangalore, but distance is irrespective when youre AWAY from home, and the slightest glimmer of a memory or a hint of some homely association is enough to bring on the pangs of nostalgia and of wanting to taste and savour every bit of that homeliness. So much of that is an association of the things I could eat so easily back home.
