Puttu is something that we call “Malayali’s Own Breakfast”, a traditional Kerala breakfast item that you find everywhere in Kerala. Puttu goes in combination with a variety of accompaniments. People here eat with their hands, they squeeze and crush bananas and mix it with Puttu, which is the most common combination. This steamed cake is so healthy that , it is listed among the best breakfasts in the world.
You could find the recipe for puttu all across the web, but before you head for it, you need to make sure that you have the right utensils for its preparation. Puttu is prepared in a “Puttu kutti” – A cylindrical tube fixed atop a utensil that passes steam by boiling water. Bamboo shoots or half cut coconut shells were used in olden days. Shredded coconut is spread or mixed with the flour for taste. The traditional way is to steam the flour in a half coconut shell, which is called “Cheratta Puttu” You could find many varieties of rice in Kerala, both white and dark. The color and taste of the Puttu depends on the rice flour used. And the shape depend on whether it is cooked in a “Kutti” or “Cheratta”. One highlight of Puttu is that it goes with any accompaniment, it is almost like rice. It goes with almost all types of curries, the question is whether you like it or not?. But what you commonly see is Banana or “Kadala curry” which is dark gram curry. Try it on your next visit to Kerala. See the original article here Not many people would associate India with beef. Spirituality yes, perhaps even vegetarianism, but certainly not beef. But then they have probably never been to Kerala, the south Indian state that loves its beef - preferably fried. The Kerala beef fry is the stuff of legend. The best sort, I was told, is served at tiny shops by the roadside, so nondescript that you might miss them completely if not for the aroma wafting out. It is a truly delicious smell with hints of coconut, curry leaves, cinnamon, cloves, coriander powder and roasted chilly. I visited one such shop, called the Paputty hotel. Paputty does not bother with unnecessary items like menus. If you have bothered to come in, it's assumed you want the beef fry. That's the only thing my hosts, Hari Lal and Ranjeet PA, want to eat, but to humour me they order a lavish spread including beef fry, beef curry, beef roast, as well as the quintessential Kerala bread, "Malabar parantha" and thin rice noodles called "idiyappam". "When I put beef fry in my mouth, my tongue tells me I am in real heaven now," Hari tells me. The key to this "heavenly" dish is coconut, a selection of Kerala spices and a lot of patience. To make authentic beef fry or "Thanga Kotthu Irachi", the meat has to be stir fried along with coconut flakes on a slow flame for half a day. "Visitors prefer beef curry, made in a gravy of tomatoes and coconut milk, since that is what they associate with Indian food, but it is the beef fry that is the most popular preparation with locals in Kerala. Full of flavour, it can be had every day or made part of a special Sunday lunch," Kerala chef Nimmy Paul, who organises cooking classes for tourists, tells the BBC Her recipe for beef fry incorporates a special preparation of ground spices that include coriander powder, chilli, black pepper, cinnamon and cloves. This fragrant mixture is massaged on to small cubes of beef along with an equal portion of coconut chunks. This is then all slow cooked in a pan with a heavy bottom. The more the beef is roasted, the darker the colour and richer the aroma of the dish. "I love that it is so succulent and melts in my mouth, and unlike mutton and chicken, it is light on the stomach", Ranjeet tells me at the hotel It is also light on the pocket. The entire beef spread at Paputty hotel costs us a mere two pounds ($2.68). This love for beef is, as mentioned before, unusual for Hindu-majority India, where the cow is largely considered sacred. Most parts of northern, central and western India, in fact, have a complete or partial ban on cattle slaughter and beef consumption. However Kerala, despite having a 55% Hindu population is one of the few Indian states with no ban. Executive Chef at Brunton Boatyards, Manoj Nair, explains that beef in fact, is a "secular meat" here. "Beef is very important for Kerala. There can be a Hindu, Muslim and Christian sitting at one table and they'd bond over a plate of beef fry and parantha despite any differences of caste and class," he says. Beef is such an intrinsic part of the Kerala identity in fact, it has even become political. Like a group of youngsters who started a Facebook page by the name "Beef Janata Party", a spoof on the country's ruling Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party, which has been perceived to be cracking down on the slaughter and consumption of cows. "At no time have beef bans been imposed so forcefully as they are now. With cattle vigilante gangs and mob lynching, this is fascism in its most scary form," a representative from the group told the BBC, requesting anonymity.
For the average Kerala citizen, spicy beef and a couple of glasses of the locally brewed coconut toddy are essential fodder for heady political debates. A sentiment expressed passionately by my companion Hari. "If they ever think of banning beef or toddy from Kerala, I will just leave." Original article here When it rains, god's own land, Kerala transforms into a beautiful paradise with lush greenery embracing its backwaters and hills, picture perfect sunsets, cool breeze, and the cheerful zeal of an array of festivals and celebrations. And as the cherry on the cake, intermittent showers don’t leave any stone unturned in enhancing the romance of the season. Although, it is not one of the best times to visit the beaches, but here comes a bucket of reasons why this coastal state lying in the peninsular of India will leave you singing and dancing in the rain. The time of the year between July and September is the season of water sports in Kerala, with the backwaters around Alappuzha playing anchor to a series of snake boat races. A lot of snake boat enthusiasts including both locals and outsiders visit Kerala during this period to participate in these unique race events. The most famous one of the lot is the Nehru Trophy Boat Race, and it generally takes place on the second Saturday of August every year. The regatta which is the series of boat races takes place on the Punnamada Lake, and features ceremonial customs and magnificent floats. Its prime attraction is the synchronized rowing of classical 30-metre-long snake-boats, Orchudan Valloms, which have a heightened prow resembling the hood of a snake.

External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj said on Sunday that government has decided to extend the last date, from June 30 to December 31, for applying for conversion of Person of Indian Origin PIO cards to Overseas Citizens of India (OCI) cards. "I feel that the coversion will not be completed by June 30. So we have decided to extend the last date to December 31," she told reporters at her annual press conference. The government had earlier extended the last date to June 30 from March 31 this year. "There will be no charge for conversion during this period. So I will suggest those, who are seeking to convert their PIO cards to OCI cards, use this time line. I want this conversion to be completed by December 31," she said. Prime Minister Narendra Modi had announced that the PIO and OCI cards will be merged and the Indian diaspora will be given maximum possible benefits. Officials said that simultaneous existence of PIO and OCI cards lead to confusion among People of Indian Origin residing abroad. Original article here
A former Marine of Indian-descent, who served in Afghanistan, is being hailed as a hero for helping scores of people escape from an Orlando gay club targeted by a terrorist who killed 49 people in the deadliest shooting in US history. Imran Yousuf, a 24-year-old bouncer at the Pulse nightclub, heard the gunfire break out early Sunday morning. "The initial one was three or four (shots). That was a shock. Three of four shots go off and you could tell it was a high caliber," Yousuf, a 'Hindu' whose family had immigrated to Guyana from India four generations ago, told CBS News. That's when his Marine Corps training kicked in, said Yousuf, a former sergeant who just left the Marine Corps last month. "Everyone froze. I'm here in the back and I saw people start pouring into the back hallway, and they just sardine pack everyone." Yousuf knew just beyond that pack of panicked people - was a door - and safety. But someone had to unlatch it. "I'm screaming 'Open the door! Open the door!'" Yousuf said. "And no one is moving because they are scared." "There was only one choice — either we all stay there and we all die, or I could take the chance, and I jumped over to open that latch and we got everyone that we can out of there." By creating the exit, Yousuf estimated that about 70 people were able to get out of the nightclub safely. "I wish I could've saved more," CBS News quoted him as saying. "...There's a lot of people that are dead." Yousuf served as an engineer equipment electrical systems technician in the Marine Corps from June 2010 to May 2016, according to service officials. He was deployed to Afghanistan in 2011. He was last assigned to 3rd Marine Logistics Group. He posted a message on his Facebook page saying he "just reacted." "There are a lot of people naming me a hero and as a former Marine and Afghan veteran I honestly believe I reacted by instinct," he wrote. Yousuf belongs to both ethnicities, Hindu and Muslim, since his grandfather is a Muslim and his grandmother and mother are Hindus, a media report said.
Sadhya is steamed rice served on a plantain leaf, bordered with a row of accompaniments that ranges from pickles, chips to pachadi, aviyal, erissery and thoran. The sadya changes its character from one region to another. Though the Travancore sadya is most popular, Malabar has a host of interesting delicacies including a non-vegetarian spread to spice up the otherwise subtle feast. Pazham nurukku and Pulunkari Kanji are two of the rarest sadya preparations. Raw bananas are chopped and steamed to prepare a humble pazham nurukku. Pulunkari Kanji is nothing but leftovers delicacies of the Onam Sadya which is poured together into one large barrel and kept tight shut for four days and savoured with pickle on the fifth day. It is believed that this leftover recipe is the miraculous solution to all the ailments caused during Onam vacation days loaded with gluttony food habits. And if you want to witness a unique Sadhya, make your way to Sasthamkotta Sree Dharmasastha Temple in Kollam district of Kerala during Onam, where monkeys are given the traditional sadya on a plantain leaf!
— Documentary Films 2016: Kerala Backwaters Documentary, Kerala Tourism Video, Incredible India6/6/2016 Kerala backwaters documentary: Ashtamudi Lake is the most visited of the lakes, covering an area of 200 km², and located in Kollam. The lake has a large network of canals that meander through the town. The Kerala backwaters are a chain of brackish lagoons and lakes lying parallel to the Arabian Sea coast (known as the Malabar Coast) of Kerala state in southern India. The network includes five large lakes linked by canals, both manmade and natural, fed by 38 rivers, and extending virtually half the length of Kerala state. The backwaters were formed by the action of waves and shore currents creating low barrier islands across the mouths of the many rivers flowing down from the Western Ghats range.

Congratulations to co-champions Jairam Hathwar and Nihar Janga who won the spelling bee this year! Palo Alto, San Ramon, Pleasanton, Newport Beach and Yorba Linda are the five wealthiest communities in America, according to a new report. Check out report here Palo Alto, San Ramon, Pleasanton, Newport Beach and Yorba Linda are the five wealthiest communities in America, according to a new report issued this week.The report says Palo Alto is the wealthiest American community of all towns that have a population of at least 65,000 citizens.
According to NerdWallet research, the median household income for Palo Alto residents is $151,370. The median home value is $2,503,600. More than one third of Palo Alto residents - 34 perecent - have no mortgage. And the average credit limit for those roaming downtown's University Avenue is $71,696. Those four pieces of aggregated data give Palo Alto a #1 ranking for American well-to-do towns, according to NerdWallet. California cities led all four categories when comparing similar data to the rest of the country. Nine of the 10 NerdWallet-termed “wealthiest” cities in the nation were in California. One Southern city made the top 10: Bethesda, Maryland. San Ramon was ranked the second most affluent city in the United States. The median household income in the East Bay city is $135,355. The California cities of Pleasanton, Newport Beach and Yorba Linda round out the top five communities of the well-to-do in America. Newport Beach ranked highest in the country in average credit limits, almost $83,000 for credit card holders. The median home value in the seaside community is $1,561,400. You can read the full NerdWallet report here. Nerdwallet lists the following information as the statistical basis for their findings: Methodology We analyzed data from 475 U.S. cities with populations of at least 65,000 that had data available for all four categories. We calculated overall scores using four measures, each weighted as 25% of the score:

http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/world/us/Indian-American-kids-swarm-White-House-Science-Fair-2016/articleshow/51814794.cms?from=mdr WASHINGTON: If you want to see why folks of Indian-origin - NRIs, PIOs, ABCDs, call them what you will - are hitting the high spots in academic achievement and entrepreneurial excellence, the Science Fair that President Obama is hosting at the White House on Wednesday provides a fair clue. Nearly a third of the projects, demos, and experiments in the jamboree involve kids of Indian-origin, and they provide a window into how this ethnic group, along with other Asian-Americans, has come to dominate school-level STEM (science, technology, engineering, math) competitions, including events hosted by companies such as Intel, Google, and Westinghouse. The White House bash is now the acme of high-school STEM endeavors. None of this should be new to President Obama, whose frequent hosting of such STEM galas in the White House has seen a fair sprinkling of Indian-American honorees, from his recognition of Stanford's Pune-born Tom Kailath with the Presidential Medal for Science, to his schmoozing with high-schoolers Shree Bose and Anand Srinivasan, who went on to Harvard and MIT respectively. He just seems to love it, and ahead of what will be the sixth and final science fair he will be hosting for school grads, he explained his motivation as follows: "If you win the NCAA (sports) championship, you come to the White House. Well, if you're a young person and you produce the best experiment or design, the best hardware or software, you ought to be recognized for that achievement, too." Few students take this challenge - and invitation - more seriously than Indian-Americans, most of them children of parents who are themselves steeped in STEM. This year's finalists who will be at the White House includes Yashaswini Makaram, 17, of Massachusetts, who has created a new cell phone security tool that records the distinctive arm and hand motions people use to lift a cell phone from a table to uniquely identify the cell phone's owner. To date, the technology correctly identifies a cell phone's owner 85 per cent of the time and differentiates among people with 93 percent accuracy. Yashaswini's biometric research, which was recognized as part of the 2016 Intel Science Talent Search, may lead to greater personalization of mobile devices, according to a White House factsheet Maya Varma, right, with fellow first-place winners Amol Punjabi of Marlborough, Mass., and Paige Brown of Bangor, Maine (Intel Science Talent Search) A story about a Presentation High School student winning first place for innovation in the Intel Science Talent Search incorrectly stated that Maya Varma led her school's robotics team. She is captain of the FIRST Tech Challenge team Acrobots, an all-girls team that includes Cupertino High students.
fter Maya Varma's friend suffered a sudden asthma attack at summer camp three years ago, the Bay Area senior began asking questions that led to her creation of a low-cost tool to measure lung ventilation, a device earning her one of three top prizes and $150,000 in the prestigious Intel Science Talent Search, considered the nation's Junior Nobel Prizes. Maya's win makes it the seventh straight year that a Bay Area student has placed among the winners and the second year that a local student has won the top prize. Last year, a San Jose student took first place in the "global good" category and a San Ramon student won second place in innovation. A Danville student won first place overall in 2011, before the contest split into three categories. Maya, 17, a senior at San Jose's Presentation High School, built a smartphone-based apparatus to diagnose five diseases, including asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, which affects 64 million people worldwide. For the project -- developed at home under the mentorship of a Johns Hopkins professor -- she won the top Intel medal for innovation. "I was so happy. I didn't expect it at all," said Maya, who along with the other two first-place winners and 40 finalists was feted for a week in Washington, D.C., by the Society for Science & the Public, which runs the contest for sponsor Intel. This could be the last year for sponsorship by Intel, which has said it will drop its support for the competition in 2017. The finalists announced Tuesday were selected from among 300 semifinalists -- 32 of them from the Bay Area, with multiple students from Monta Vista in Cupertino; Bellarmine, the Harker School and Lynbrook in San Jose; Amador Valley in Pleasanton; Gunn in Palo Alto; and Saratoga High. After a week in the nation's capital, Maya said, "I loved getting to meet all the finalists and listening to their research. I loved touring D.C., going to the National Institutes of Health and meeting its director. It's been a great week." She is the first Presentation student to become an Intel finalist -- the school had a semifinalist in 2006 and one in 2007. The school excitedly posted the news Wednesday. "We are thrilled for Maya. She is a dedicated, driven student who is as kind as she is intelligent," said spokeswoman Caitlin Matalone. "We are particularly proud of her commitment to helping others through science." Maya began working on engineering projects in the sixth grade. She has such a stellar reputation, her AP Physics teacher, Diane Rosenthal, said, that just realizing she's a student in your class is intimidating. She's so sharp that if she misses something on a test or homework, Rosenthal said, "I then wonder, did I do something wrong?" For her Intel project, Maya developed a spirometer, which analyzes pulmonary function. Unlike existing spirometers, which cost in the thousands of dollars, she assembled hers with $35 worth of hobbyist electronics and free computer-aided design tools. She engineered a wireless transmitter, using Bluetooth technology to connect to a micro-controller, and also developed an app for the device. For Maya, the cost was key. When she researched spirometers, she found that their expense is the barrier to treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, the fourth-leading cause of death in the world. Early detection is vital. "Ninety percent of the deaths are in the developing world because they don't have the resources for diagnostic equipment," she said. While existing spirometers provide data for doctors to interpret, Maya's device provides diagnostic information directly to patients. She started on her project in 2014, after she won a $600 research grant. While working on her device, she communicated via email with her mentor, Dr. Muhammad Ali Yousuf at Johns Hopkins University. Besides building engineering projects, Maya captains a robotics team, enjoys art and loves to draw. She flew home from D.C. on Wednesday but won't get back to school until Friday. That's because on Thursday, she'll be at the Synopsys Science & Technology Fair at the San Jose Convention Center, showing another project, an automated wheelchair that helps with navigation. Maya, who hasn't decided where she'll attend college yet, hopes to study biomedical engineering and develop medical devices. She's the daughter of two engineers, Anujan and Sobha Varma of Cupertino. The winners were announced Tuesday night at a black-tie gala at the National Building Museum. Of her exhilarating week meeting with top scientists and peers, she said, "It's been really fun and I've loved every moment." First Video Song from the movie Charlie - Debut from Gopi Sundar Audios
The Guinness world record for the largest human Christmas tree is now held by the Chengannur Municipality in Alappuzha, Kerala.

Large earthquakes can be incredibly serious, like the one that struck Afghanistan on Monday. But not all earthquakes are devastating, earth-shattering monsters. Sometimes, they're just...there. Over the past two weeks, over 408 earthquakes have rattled the town of San Ramon, California. That's a little over an earthquake every hour, and sets a record for the area, beating out a 2003 swarm which lasted for a month and had 120 earthquakes. It's an impressive accomplishment, but San Ramon has a long way to go if it wants to beat seismic heavyweights like Yellowstone National Park, which recorded 3,000 earthquakes over 3 months in 1985. The largest earthquake in the swarm was a magnitude 3.6 on October 19. Magnitude is a measure of how large an earthquake is. A 3.6 magnitude earthquake is a fairly moderate-size earthquake that is unlikely to cause damage. Many of the other earthquakes in the swarm were so small that they weren't felt by residents. The United States Geological Survey (USGS) says that the swarm could last for "several more weeks". But that isn't a reason to panic. As unsettling as the shaking is, the USGS says that the chance of these smaller earthquakes presaging a larger earthquake is very small, and the chance of a damaging earthquake (larger than a magnitude 6.7) happening along the fault causing the shaking is only about 8 percent. |
