[@ananyaakap]

It is a very standard recipe, so maybe that is also why there is no point in hiding. The thing about cooking in general, and Indian cooking in specific is cooking out of instinct (thus is observed such a lack of organised recipes, ingredient measuring)- it is the knowledge of the principles of cooking, mastery of their skill over the years, and cooking with love/soul that defines the quality of the food. This is also why the exact same recipes may taste different across Indian households/kitchens.

@@Mrtribru69 Yes, way back in 1975, I was a young teenager and worked as a bus boy at my Uncle's Fish Restaurant. The amount of food that was throw away was heartbreaking. Many nights after we closed down, my Uncle would give me free cooked catfish that was not served, but rather sat under heat lamps for no more than an hour. I would collect the fish in a standard brown paper grocery bag and bring it home. I would eat and share this fish with my Parents over the next several days. There was nothing wrong with this food. Had I not taken it, the food would have been thrown in the trash. This just always seemed so wasteful, even for a young chap like me.

@@rockbay79 . We Indians have such a bad habit of wasting food ( the educated and the richer ones), going to a buffet counter, taking all food, almost half of it they dont eat! In many German restaurants, you have to pay more if food is left in your plate. Most of the Belgian people here do not waste food. They eat almost everything what is served on the plate. They are tourists who come here from different destinations who waste food. In an Indian restaurant in Antwerp city...they have firmly written, " Food is precious, please do not waste", " It is a shame to waste food, please take only what you consume"....it is all over the walls.

The only thing that gives slums negative impression is a lack of public planning and you can't even say that it's the government's fault, because the poorer migrant sections in any big cities will flock to the places that will be least expensive and they will be the least planned. By the time the government get to redeveloping the area, the areas would have been too densely populated and convincing the people to give up their only shelter and have faith in the government would have become a gigantic task.

A slum has the highest literacy rate in the country, that's impressive. EDIT: Apparently it's ONE OF THE HIGHEST, not THE HIGHEST in the country. I apologize for misleading viewers.

[@sanjugupta3056]

This was wrong fact shown india has avg. Literacy rate of 74.04 % . Kerela being the state with higesht literacy rate 93.91 %. Infact dharavi is having one of the lowest literacy rate in whole Maharastra .

[@Raky2427]

@Kevin Troy 74% is not a high literacy rate. It's a serious problem which we're trying to solve.

[@KawaiiLoveSquishy]

@Kevin Troy dude just respect their culture ok. they have been eating like this for centuries and adapted to live like that. sanitary hygiene is a basic procedure in ur and my country bcs its accessible and affordable. for them, its not affordable and it will increase their prices by alot if they buy alot of sanitary products, and how can common/ poor folks afford to pay? basic hygiene is a problem but pls, dont be rude. for e.g. a surgical mask cost maybe 0.5-1.5 usd, thats the price of a single meal for them do u know that? and not to mention, other sanitary gear,, be glad that ur country has proper hygiene but dont mock others for a culture u dont uds

[@sanjugupta3056]

@Kevin Troy I admit that this is an issue. This is directly related to education and literacy rates but there is huge difference in areas which have >85 , 90 % lit. rates . Those regions are much cleaner and beautiful eg- Backwaters Of Kerala. We are commited make strides in this area through a initiative called Clean India Mission .

People who are always clean and have OCD when it comes to cleanliness are more prone to diseases and sickness because their immune system don't get enough exercise to combat foreign matters that get inside their bodies.

Well the idli guy is already earning good money, more than what most salaried people earn and even considering the cost of living in mumbai, he can easily move out of the slum. But the point is he can't operate a kitchen in a residential area at 3am. So if he moves out he has to pay for 2 properties, one his residence and the other his kitchen. So it's kind of a bottleneck for him but also a blessing that keeps his operation costs low. It's not impossible for him to make a franchise for his business, infact many popular India fastfood franchises were small businesses and they are doing really well. One has to just play smartly( like using a foodtruck in this case, I mean the man can afford it ) and have luck, it's not like you can't become rich in india as fast as in the US.
