Where I’m From We Eat. By Saheba Lokhandwal Inspired by: Willie Perdomo

If I said I was from Central Bombay where you can smell the aroma of different spices from the Puri carts from all corners of the street, would you know where I’m from? Where I’m from we choose to eat dessert before the appetizers so we can savor the rest of the meal. Where I’m from we eat different kinds of currys like Chicken Makhni and Butter Chicken with naan. Where I’m from the sweetest form of dessert is this sticky goey orange pretzel shaped dessert called Jalebi. Jalebi’s made from flour, saffron, oil and sugar. The most delicious deep fried thing from my country.
