In this times of corona when the whole family is at home 24/7 - one constant questions most of the mothers face atleast 4- 10 times a day is - 'Aaj khanne mein kya hai' and 'Mummy snacks mein kya hai ' (what's there for Breakfast/lunch/dinner today or what's there for snacks).
Now that going out in general is so limited and going out with family for dinner is almost ruled out - its a big task to keep the meals interesting everyday, and even more difficult is to manage the snacks part . Cookies, cake, biscuits, chips and most sort after - fried items are the fast moving things at home.
So after being fed up with buying same things again and again - and also making few quick snacks at home - this week i decided to make Kerala special "banana chips" at home. Though its very simple and easy snack to make , but somehow I feel its too much of hassle making it. So this week saw good 'Nendraka' the plantain used in Kerala for making chips for very reasonable rate in the local market, I just bought it .
Before the Tea time started frying and after couple of rounds of frying asked Esther (my daughter) to help me with frying. Naturally we both started munching also while frying - me scolding her in between for not doing things properly and she complaining that I don't have patience :) End of the frying we sat down with our tea and chips, and after a while my daughter said - 'Mummy you should make chips for us when you grow old"
