<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S8BDcs11Do4&t=450">7:30</a> Hello from India, it's better to add onions because 1) thicker gravy and sweetness from onions helps reduce sourness of tomatoes 2) using only tomatoes does not give a balanced flavour, though you can alter the ratio of tomato and onions 3) there is no written and fixed authentic butter chicken recipe (so as long as you add core ingredients it's good), but the common interpretation is that onion and tomato gravy is better 4) every restaurants here and all chefs add onion to the sauce,  and all the people prefer it, we cant imagine butter chicken without onions.

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S8BDcs11Do4&t=21">0:21</a> The chickens are skinny because they are using naatu koli it's a local breed of chickens, naatu means native or local and koli means chicken.

As a country boy from Kentucky, I am very impressed with the level of country in this video. This food was made the right way and I’d love a plate of it myself!

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S8BDcs11Do4&t=344">5:44</a> India in the 90s were very different. We didn’t have much tv or fancy mass produced toys. We either had hand me downs or used leaves and flowers and sticks and rocks to make our own toys. We used to peel the calyx of a certain local flower to make ‘acrylic nails’ lol. And we used to paint pebbles to look like bugs and run around scaring all the aunties in our neighbourhood. We had cycling races on long empty stretches of roads, used tennis balls to play cricket, made swings out of ropes and random clothes, and tried to eat any fragrant leaves we could find because they were ‘medicinal’ (lots of doctor visits due to stomach problems lol). We even made jewellery out of discarded copper wires and shiny pebbles. We were a silly bunch. Oh and the Yagi Uda antennas! Every house with a TV had one for the one Doordarshan channel. And every house also had a line of at least 4 people from the TV to the antenna to pass messages. The person at the antenna would tilt it this way and that while the person at the TV would confirm if they received the signal or not. And our entire community’s timetable was set around that one TV program they saw and discussed in the tea shop or the bus stop or the market.

There is actually a village in South India where most of the people who live there are cooks! They mostly do large banquets like weddings and such. I cant fathom making food for more than three people and they do it at scale, its amazing! Also the guy talking about 90s kids was saying that making flutes/whistles from leaves was a popular thing amongst kids back then.
