[@bukitkatilmp]

Been to South India and eaten the food there, and of course eaten Indian food in Malaysia. As a Malaysian, of course will be choosing Malaysian Indian food because it is localized to suit Malaysian tastes.

[@samaguinaldo8556]

@Liverpool FC I believe he said he prefers Malaysian Indian food. Im from Indonesia, and I prefer Malaysian Indian food too. Its a matter of preference!

[@safetyfirst3359]

Have you tried Singapore 🇸🇬 Indian food??

[@bukitkatilmp]

@@safetyfirst3359 Yes, its the commercialized version of Malaysian Indian food, as both countries share the same food, people and culture.

[@nagamuthu2706]

The Indian diaspora spans over many countries.kumar is a Malaysian of Indian decent,ethically Tamil, (correct me if I’m wrong ).i too am of similar heritage .very many of the Indian food you find in Malaysia is rooted in Tamil cuisine,Telugu cuisine that was bright by migrants in the 18 and 19th century .it is important to note that although the Indian food in Malaysia and indian food from south India (tamilnadu) have the same names and use the same cooking techniques ,the spice composition varies and as does the quality.the mamak food culture in Malaysia is inspired by the Tamil Muslim food tradition dating back centuries.similar food can be found in Tamil Muslim areas of Tamil Nadu and their haleavy use of animal products from contact with Arab traders who “ localised” .this culture of food has spread over to Malaysia as well.the bans leaf cuisine of Malaysia closely resembles the heartland cuisine of tamilnadu,(Madurai,Chettinad and Tirunelveli regions) The food is primarily vegetarian based and is in compliance with the shaivite Hindu faith of vegetarianism.however this is not to say that the cuisine is strictly vegetarian .due to contact with the Tamil Muslims of north tamilnadu ,southern Tamil Hindus also started developing meat based dishes ,as an addition to their traditional vegetarian based dishes.the Indians who came to work in the plantations and tea estates in Malaysia were familiar with this vegetarian based southern Tamil cuisine this subsequent generations who got into the business of food in Malaysia developed banana leaf cusines.banana leaf is the plate equivalent for South Indian food ,differing from the North Indian tradition. Coming back to kumar ,I have had the same experience as him as a Malaysian of Indian decent (Tamil) and have been deeply involved in this amalgamation of essentially two different styles of Indian cusine which is that of the Tamil Muslim tradition and that of the Tamil Hindu tradition. The Indian cuisine of Malaysia (I’m referring to Hindu Tamil tradition!has a much less potent use of spices than in tamilnadu India.this is due to economic reasons and scarcity of resources that the early migrants had to deal with. However much I’m honoured to be a part of the Indian Tamil community who have persevered and kept their cuisine alive despite their hardships. To kumar and family this long explanation I think is deserving of this video.as context will enrich our understanding of the amazing work you are doing and even add on .you sir are in a unique position of showcasing Malaysian food broadly, while living overseas, so I guess this message should act as a way of saying thanks .

[@KumaarFamily]

Thank you! Appreciate your time for sharing this 👍

[@blardymunggas6884]

Looks amazing though apart from the roti canai. I must say it looks more delicious

[@L20241]

You’ve given a very fine example as You said Malaysian Indian food is primarily South Indian whereas in the US it’s mostly Punjabi food that often passes for Indian food. It’s also Punjabi food that the Americans are familiar with and know as Indian food. But this Appa Kadai is Tamil/Kerala food so welcome change from typical American Indian food.

[@arghyajadav3825]

@Vicky tamil people are Indian

[@An_ony_mous]

@Vicky Shut up man. Tamil Nadu is part of India. If his ancestors are from Tamil Nadu, he is obviously Indian origin.

[@SuperSkittyCat]

My experience with Indian food over the years in the U.S the larger cities with a larger Indian population has better quality, and more variety.

[@Rapture77]

Am M'sian in the US. We get organic and more healthy ingredients for Indian and vegetarian foods here in the US.

[@stoopidcupid77]

Dont worry about ky ky, he can handle the spicy, he has malaysian genetic😜

[@m1992seishun]

I think Rachel prefer the chicken curry because it is creamier.. In Malaysia our curry have more spices taste.. But if you try Malay curry it would taste kind of like the ones in America since Malay likes to use lots of coconut milk..

[@نورعيني5103حسين]

There is also a Malay version curry without coconut milk at all.

[@kamitauhangtau7725]

@Liverpool FC dont comment like you know everyhing..it show that u know nothing

[@brightiris]

@Liverpool FC It probably just means either Malaysianized curry or Malayanized curry. Literally everyone knows curry comes from India.

[@ChrisKinster]

What a silly question, I already know the answer before clicking on the video. And I'm not even Indian Malaysian, but we love everybody's food here in our homeland!

[@shashawol]

Really enjoyed this comparison video! It was interesting to see the differences between the two countries (of course it'll vary depending on the restaurant), but it's good to see that there are places that serve more traditional/authentic Indian cuisine :D Maybe you could do a comparison between authentic Malay and Chinese dishes/cuisine? ^^

[@BeyfighterFaris]

Most indian restaurants in Malaysia just Malaysianised their dishes. But you can find a gem or two of authentic ones

[@CekurMas]

Lovely Cuddly Boys, I like that smile from the younger one. Well, nothing compared to Malaysia authentic & very affordable foods. Ultimately, I really enjoyed watching your "MukBang" video. Great effort Logesh & Rachel. 👍✌️🇸🇬👋

Good on both of you to introduce malaysian food to the boys,,,they will definitely grows up to be hot stuff guys,,

[@L20241]

Exactly this appa kadai is more authentic Indian as from India as opposed to Malaysian Indian food that is heavily diluted through generations. Indians in the US are just 1-2 generations old at the most 3 unlike Malaysian Indians

[@susan5429]

Watching you guys eat always make me salivate. As I live in Japan, there is no such thing as roti chanai or any authentic Malaysian foods here. It is only frozen parathas or nan for me here. Well, better than nothing, I guess. Your kids are so so cute and well behaved too at meal times. 👍

not sure if u know bout this fact bout roti canai,but there's 2 shape for it.. square for crispy roti canai,round for more texture of the dough.. any square roti canai mixing mostly are crunchier version than the round one... square have to request the to make it,as mostly roti canai are made in round,prep in advance..

That is what Roti Prata supposed to be. It is not Roti Canai, but it is a type of roti in its own. They just [m]ake the dough into spiral/coil shape and bake it.

[@tomiemyspace5054]

@@bukitkatilmp Not saying which is one is best. Just saying what roti prata is. I'm a Malaysian. So, I know what is roti canai. The thing is, many thought roti canai and roti prata supposed to be the same. Original roti prata supposed to look like in this video, a bit crusty, a bit like overbaked. Roti canai is the modified version of roti prata/pratha/paratha.

You can't compare Malaysian prices to US prices in US minimum wage is 12$ in Malaysia it's 5RM...........so obviously it's gonna be more expensive than the ones in Malaysia. I find US food portion to always be filling regardless of the price.

Hi .I'm from Malaysia and have reasonable tasted Indian food in Ireland and in the UK , not in the US though. Nice videos Logesh but please improve your understanding on Indian cuisines in Malaysia some of the things you have said is so misleading. Mutton peratal vs mutton varuval are both vastly different and a true Indian Food-lover should be able to differentiate it. And NO soy sauce is NEVER used in these dishes. Also, to note Malaysian foods especially Malaysian-Indian foods are strongly moving away from the use of MSG , so what you've said about MSG use maybe not so accurate to paint a picture on the food climate over here in Malaysia. Overall, great to watch and best wishes.
