Hey beautiful people, this was fun! What foods should we get our Nigerian side of the family to try? 😄

[@maheswariv.9899]

Instead of plain Vada it could be thayir Vada , coconut/ ghee rice, beetroot/ kasini halwa, aviyal I think they would love it

[@gaildj2278]

I make many south Indian dishes ,though I am not from the south. Appams would be great . The texture of the dosa is different . I make it on a non stick pan you got to have tiny holes it is fermented and thinner . Yours did not ferment and more like a crepe. I am a Mumbiakar and make a variety of dishes.

[@vjfashions2415]

Try dal vada, gurd vada, dry fish curry with 🍆and raw mango😋

Hi beautiful girl- love your video

[@dariusrao2536]

We are proud of our Indian daughter...u r keeping alive the Indian tradition of respecting ur elders, taking care of all ur family members and spreading love and care and keeping the family united

[@quiet7632]

Yes! Love this comment that explains a bit a of our culture.

[@mccg4337]

so your are proud of your daughter breaking culture and adding to another mans culture and prosperity. so your own man is deprived of the posibility of she could provide in value. maybe you lost a few cells in your brain. I am not going to attack this women, but do understand she failed her ethinicity and people.

[@kavitabalakrishnan6219]

Your Nigerian grandparents are so sweet. It was lovely seeing them try South Indian food.

[@jesalbhatt8967]

Grandpa looks so much Indian.

[@LB-ds8zw]

Exactly...my Indian grand father looks like him

[@homodeus8713]

Very normal in Africa. 😊

[@bharti1511]

Right ✅️

[@cathe8762]

Nigerian and Indian food have similarities. We cherish our wife, Kalpa, for her humility.

[@shaliaflanagan4037]

Baby, looks like his great grandparents ❤

[@sophiaquzi3411]

You guys are the best, I would like my daughter to find a husband like yours who has a great family. Bless you all

[@chereipeach345]

the grandparents are sooo sweet esp grandpa love it

[@nancynancy7064]

Very long gap of your videos..aaryan started walking!!! So glad to see everyone..God bless

[@safinabuharis7456]

Beautiful to see how we live world apart but share similarities in food wow! We also have sinasir (rice pancakes) and masa/waina in northern Nigeria which is made using fermented rice too. That tempering also applies to us, it’s almost impossible to not temper soups with either fried ghee or hot cayenne pepper ( yaji) or both. I’m amazed at the similarities though 😊

[@RudraSingh08309]

Africa and two things in our blood Food and Dance 🙏🙏

[@shwetataneja9544]

What a beautiful, loving and classy couple--and surrounded by loving family members from the Nigerian and Indian sides. Watching your videos makes me so happy. Keep making the great videos and stay blessed.

[@lornajoseph5206]

How lovely was this to watch, but oooh how beautiful it was to watch your son reach out to his great grandmother. In the Caribbean we say 'blood doesn't lose'. Children can feel the connection without truly understanding. I think you are an amazing family anyway. Much love coming from the UK❤

[@sowjanyakakani6441]

We lived in Lagos for 2years,we had a beautiful experience surrounded by beautiful people

[@kamso9269]

This is so beautiful to see. How your son took to them so well is amazing. You are all blessed. I enjoyed the video a lot. Thanks for sharing 🎉❤👏🏽

[@vivekdoraiswami7476]

The important thing is all these things she's making is easy for digestion. Its a soft food and healthy also. You guys are lucky to have a Chennai girl.

[@deyalbadreams8180]

Awee he didn't want them to leave 😭🙏🏾💖

[@AJITHTHOMAS-xp6cm]

The essence of Indian culture is Love and Respect for elders I am glad you are living the Indian Life

[@arunagarwal3426]

[@Anonymous-z4m3l]

Tempering is a type of heat treatment used to increase the toughness of certain metals, most commonly iron-based alloys like steel. The metal being treated, using this process, is heated under its critical point temperature and then air-cooled.

[@jalabi99]

Aaryan is super super lucky to be able to meet his great-grandparents!!

[@ChennaitoLagos]

Indeed! 😊

[@bodhiandmommi]

Kalpa is adorable, her voice is so sweet

[@jeanettedias64]

My all time favourite recipes for all seasons. God bless ur lovely family, lots of love to ur little Angel ❤

[@sandraatkins2539]

I love Southern Indian food. Greetings and blessings from America.

[@mehrygoround]

To Ola's question- how did west africa and asia make the same thing? - people have migrated and mingled for ages and food has always been part of the migration. So there are many similar dishes throughout the world amongst many different cultures with similar bases. The spices and condiments have changed depending on the region and availability of spices.

[@debarghyaroy9948]

Grandpa and granny are so sweet I wanna hug them I swear!!❤

[@sandraatkins2539]

Beautiful grandparents and Beautiful grandson ❤❤❤❤

[@cherylphillip3605]

In Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹we call Temper.."choonkay" we usually use garlic sautéed in oil and thrown hot into our dhal, tomato choka(roasted tomatoes seasoned) etc

[@dariusrao2536]

In India it is called chaunkh....tempering with various spices like mustard seeds, red chillies, garlic, curry leaves, urad dal, all spluttering in heated oil or ghee and then added to the base dish and the lid closed so that all the flavours get locked in

[@dariusrao2536]

Trinidad n Tobago has a last of indentured labourers from Bihar,a state in India, so naturally ur food will resemble Indian food...ur roots r desi

[@sainib]

Grandpa is such a kind gentleman. Lovely family.

[@ragheshtr]

Akkara vadisal is a dish in srirangam temple...name resembles of akkara vada from Nigeria

[@blessingileoba8169]

The indigenous people of India migrated from Africa many, many centuries ago.That is why the foods are similar.

[@hosealong3930]

You always hear that Indians are completely against marrying outside of their ethnic group. Of course, there are always exceptions. As I watched this video, I thought how beautiful the blend of two people of color is, ethnically, culturally, socially... I truly enjoyed the beauty of this video.

[@pragyanj.2095]
