Pothi Choru is popular in Trivadrum. There are home chefs who have championed in preparing delicious side dishes as made at home. Also, there are little hotels, like this one at Kumarapuram, which sells rice and accompaniments for Rs 60.
I bought two from this shop – one for my brother. The quantity of rice is humongous. Easily three people can share the rice and still have remaining one. All the other dishes, sambar, rasam, aviyal etc came in plastic sort of covers. I just opened the sambar, as other dishes appears boring.
Adding Plastic to the Pile
Is there a different way of packing food? What about some kind of paper or environment friendly item? Who will take the initiative to fix this? Will someone who is willing to take the effort, take the lead?
Please do!
Btw, what are the systems followed in other countries, like Singapore or South Korea or Netherlands? Probably, we don’t have to invent anything new – just copy the idea from a society which has found a solution?
