Indian Food: Indian Staples and Uzma Jalaluddin

indian food: Only at my house, we just called it food, according to Toronto Star. Fast forward a generation, and my children's culinary experience is completely different to my own. Bernard Weil / Toronto Star file photo By Uzma Jalaluddin Special to the Star Thu., June 22, 2017 I grew up eating Indian food. The Indian staples my husband and I grew up with are the exception in our household, not the norm.I started thinking about this because it's Ramadan, the Muslim month of fasting and spiritual reset. My kids are fasting a few days, mostly on weekends, and our experiences are completely different. The fasts are long more than 17 hours in Toronto which leaves me with a lot of time to contemplate meals. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
