'Amma finds any opportunity to bring up the time she packed my kinder lunchbox full of 'puris' and potatoes. The potatoes are cut into small chunks and cooked with onions, curry leaves and sprinkles of cumin seeds. It's the turmeric that dyes the potatoes a fluorescent yellow. Apparently some kids teased me, probably thinking that my lunch looked like alien food compared to their ham sandwiches.'  (Publication abstract)
