Chalein hum Videsh

Cooking in a foreign environment is definitely a challenge. Right from the cooking gas stove to the vegetables, everything looks so different! In order to counter this to some extent, what most of the people end up doing is fill up their bags with all sorts of Indian spices, vessels, and in some cases, vegetables too! This creates a scene in most of the foreign security checks before landing in a foreign country.

So what do we pack back home in terms of food? What Indian food stuff would be available in the foreign markets? Would the foreign security check let you take a particular food stuff? - are the basic questions while packing.

Well, the answer is simple. You will need only a basic set of Indian cooking vessels in your bag. NOTHING else! At the end of the day, you must remember that now, you are in a foreign country. You just cannot expect the same Indian food even from an Indian restaurant in a foreign country!

So shall we give up our taste? No. Definitely not. Why not dish it out on your own? Make the effort and get a reward - a happy tongue and a full tummy!
