RE: Day9, lotus leaf

I know that weddings aren't the only occasion when eating this kind of food, but I do miss Indian weddings and the food served. Sighhh

I know we can make the food ourselves though, but it's not the same haha

Enjoy the weekend! :)

Hey @tanjakolader,
in most cases when there is a puja, they cook like this. Now days people do make other vegetarian food like fried rice or pasta. I do appreciate that but it is a different vibe when they serve the traditional food in the lotus leaf, DELICIOUS!
haha, I love it when the old people cook, it tastes differently.
Have a splendid weekend!

I know... Hahaha
Makes me think of the Javanese gundureng (rituals, with after that a meal served), where the men distribute every item after each other and after that the food's wrapped in banana leaves and the men will share the food with their families.

When I get to eat that food I can't help but eat with my hand 🙈
It tastes so different when eating with your hand.

I would love to see the gundureng. I do not have Javanese friends which carry on the tradition, so I have never seen it :(
The only Javanese traditional/cultural food I tried on my own was the BARKAT (I don't know how to write it). I would love to know more about the Javanese tradition/culture.
Haha, when I'm eating at home, it's always with my hand! EXCLUDING SOUP! HAHA
I do agree with that! Food is tastier when you're eating with hand

Oh..... Berkat is the food you get at a gundureng 🙈
I don't know if my spelling is good also haha

Anyway, so gundureng is the ritual and berkat is the food you get after or during the ritual 😉
These rituals are when people get married, a boy gets circumsized, when a baby's hair gets shaved for the first time, etc.
