Summer Memories

The Old and the New for the Harvest Festival:
Cucumbers and American Sweet Corn for sale.
Vegetable shop in a small village near Palakkad, Kerala.

Unripe Plantains...
...perfect for making the speical Varutha Upperi- smaller half-moon banana chips with an entirely different flavour and its twin, the Sharkara Upperi - thicker half moon chunks coated in a jaggery syrup and dusted with powdered sugar and dried ginger!
And something from the home:
Ingredients for the Avial, sourced from the garden...all except the carrot!
Pumpkin, Ash gourd, two unripe bananas, a green brinjal and a carrot.
