Strange $1 Juice In Sri Lanka 🇱🇰
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 сер 2024
- Today we explored Jaffna, Northern Sri Lanka by bike.
Not gonna lie we checked out a local fish market on the coast then ended up spending most of our day eating all the Sri Lankan street food!
We tried jambu on the road side, ate the whole menu in a local women run restaurant then tried mutton kottu for the first time followed by some red jalebi.
Can't forget we had a super refreshing roadside orange juice as well as trying the infamous Sri Lankan wood apple.
Jaffna, Sri Lanka is an alright little place! 🇱🇰

We used to get this in south Tamil Nadu in the 90s; the fruit is very pungent. Keep the tender ones soaked in salt water for a few hours to get the most out of it. It's unpopular now and rare to get.
Hope you know, Jaffna faced the worst ethnic violence in Sri Lanka, which lead to the killing of millions of Tamils over decades....may b people there are yet to overcome...that pain...thats why they seem to be keeping to themselves...just sharing....so you know the back ground
@@lakshmis7129 Yes we know the history.
You need to make that juice with coconut milk and vanila Ice cream
@@lakshmis7129 also TAMIL terrorist attacked south also ,,bombed blast Trains.bus ,banks,air port hospital,, killed 200000 unarmed cilvians ,, don't forget, I know lakshimia7129 also pumped dollers to LTTE ,,BLOOD ON YOUR HANDS
In southern part of sri lanka ,we add coconut milk in to wood apple justice , then it become more creamy and tasty
Bet that is soo good
sri lanka seems peaceful....
Very peaceful. Lovely place
The all ladies chef restauaraunt you guys been to in sri lankan trip so far has such cozy and positive vibes.
Always so lovely
Another good one Ellis and Alicia showing us all things local. Really enjoying seeing Sri Lanka again with you. Cheers.
Thanks a lot Carol. We're really enjoying this trip
Its called Jambu or Jambu nerale in Mangalore also. Its very sweet. And the lady shop keeper also very honest
Yeah she could of just taken our 130! Nice lady 🙏
@@EllisWR sir if u r coming Mangalore i will meet u 💖
Wood apple should make with coconut milk or fresh milk rather than water. Then it should top with scoop of vanilla ice cream. You should try it that way. Woow.... my favorite, and definitely you will fall in love with it.
Sounds like heaven!
Yes my favorite drink ❤
As always, a real, raw and genuine review of Sri Lanka
. Would love to visit one day. The food looks so fresh and healthy.
Thanks so much! Yeah the food is amazing!
Cute little Ghecko at the end on her arm. Love waking up to another video from yall.
Thanks we really appreciate it! The gecko would not leave us alone
And I am a big fan of you, you make very good videos, people are a lot of tourists, but you make very good videos, I like you very much.
Thanks for supporting 🙏
@@EllisWRAlisha and you have a knack of hitting the right spot every time. I don't know how you do it.
Brilliant vid as always. Loved the fish market & the different cooking stations where you met the fella from MK.
That lady who was selling jambu fruit was honest. Wish you would have tipped her! Although its not mandatory to tip, every little helps x on different note, your skills of eating by hand is impressive! My British husband cant do it properly even after been with me for 7 years
We don't tip especially on camera, leave that to other youtubers chasing the views! We're all about human interaction not transaction 🙏
Wood apple should make with Coconut milk. Its more tasty that way....
You can eat raw would apple mixed with salt,chillies and little bit of suga. A absolute delight ....
Sounds wonderful
Enjoy your trip. Greetings from Colombo🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♂️🇱🇰🫶🫶❤️
Thanks so much have a nice day!!
Red Sweet snack called as THEN Kulal in Tamil - means Honey Tube
Jilebi and Kothu Ultimate..
Nice CRAB Blue swimmer.. SEAFOOD market...
Delicious
hi E&A thanks to show me Sri Lanka local food, way of life 🙏. many things like house style pretty similar to us. btw the goats not scared of motor vehicle at all .
Very relax here I'm glad you enjoy!!
The Calm and Quietness in 51 minutes is just so amazing..
🙏🙏🙏
Another fun video thanks. I love the slapstick you both do occasionally. rave on, laundry washer.
Cheers! Should probably throw it in there all the time maybe
its a classic fruit of srilanka... woodapple ice cream is delicious ... the drink is not for everyones taste.. by the way hello from. uk,,,, your videos are hilarious ... very true to life... and you guys are so respectful of the different cultures its really special...
It's so delicious I like it a lot. We try the ice cream soon! I appreciate the kind words thankyou!!
Marvellous journey of you people
Thank you!!
Usually we don't eat kottu or fried rice by hand. We always use cutlery for that. We only eat rice and curry or string hoppers kinda food by hand
Everyone is always eating by hand? It's easier for us
Nice video!!!! More delicious food! 😋
Nice place man!
Mothagam is known as sweetest snack within srilankan community. They add green gram , jaggery and scraped coconut as ingredients to make the shape as how it looks like, I hope you guys enjoyed it
It's sooo good
You both are using your fingers to eat like locals... :) Love from Sri Lanka
Bestway!!
The sugar water was brown probably because we use brown sugar a lot. We prefer it over the highly refined white sugar and it does have a fruiter sweetness to it rather just plain sweet.
Yeah brown sugar is king
At the fish market, it was a auction to sell they fish as a lot for the smaller fish selllers in the village
Was very interesting
@@EllisWR Leish noticed a baby swordfish, I think with the pointy nose!...there are similar milk fish called 'Kane' but not so pointy eh!
@@JaneDoe-jl5it oooo thanks!!
Woo Hoo another great vid!
Thanks so much Susie have a top day!
That wood apple is known to be incredibly healthy. It does have a bitter and mildly sweet taste. They grow in people's yards where I live and occasionally, being the early bird I'll come across fallen ones which are also conveniently cracked open when they hit the ground. I would say consume they as often as you can your body will thank you for it.
They taste pretty good actually I've become a big fan
@@EllisWR woodapple jelly is a jelly that my grandad used to make. It was clear red and incredible on toast.
wood apple is my favourite fruit ever, try wood apple nectarine in the shop. it has high nutrients and the more ripen wood apples are good to make juices.
The fruits you bought for ten rupees are called 'Jambu' and you had at 'Ammachi' was string hopper and Pittu. Very interesting video from Jaffna where I visited last year. Thanks guys!
Thanks for watching my friend!
I AM Belonging to the lovely city of Jaffna, don't forget to take a swim in KEERI visit TO the beautiful Naina island temple, Selva Sannithi temple and Nallur temple.
Thanks my friend
3:57 that sweet is probably a version of what we call suliyam it has a lentil filling with jaggery and then battered and deep fried
It's very good like
MOTHAGAM - MUNK Lentil + Jaggery( Came from Tamil word Sakkarai) + shredded Coconut wrapped with Red rice Flour.
Actually jaggery came from Portuguese,
Sanskrit>malayalam>Portuguese=jaggery
@@user-ib2dq7ev5n Sakkarai is the Original Tamil word - From the Tamil word Sakkarai - Jaggery came.
Study Etymology properly and come back my friend.
70% Sanskrit words have roots in Tamil which is the oldest language.
@@சென் fr..? Portuguese got the word from malayalam chakkara and acording to malayalam language the word chakkara has it origins from sanskrit..? Its not just me saying that..
20-30% vocab of tamil is just sanskrit.. if 70% of words in sanskrit dravidiam then almost every indo aryan and indo European language would sound like tamil..? But no..? Sanskrit is a complex yet phenomenal language.. tamil don't even have symbols for most sounds..😅
Pa/ba same
Sa/cha/sha same
Ka/ga/ha same
Ta/da same
Tha(th in thing)/tha(th in the)same
Eg: the word for sugar is actually form northern India which is cheeni but when tamils adopted it they pronounced the as ceeni cuz there are no separate symbols for sa/cha.. then what happend tamils started to this that this word also a tamil origin one😃.. but in reality no..
So yeah..
@@user-ib2dq7ev5n Malayalam itself a Tamil word and Malayalam came from Tamil just 600 years ago and they were Tamils of Tamil King CHERAR.
@@user-ib2dq7ev5n Sanskrit ONLY started writing after 2 AD by borrowing others' letters and before that No such language called Sanskrit but Tamil is the oldest language under the sun.
Tamil don't need Sanskrit words to function at all unlike others like mixed language Sinhala.
Tamil can function as Pure Tamil even if we get rid d some words from other languages but YOURS cannot function without Tamil and other languages.
Try woodapple jam. The most popular type of jam in Sri Lanka..
Will try!
So glad you guys finally tried Kothu!! It's my favourite Tamil food, and I'm Tamil LOL. Mom makes the best oneee. Makes me for it for me atleast 3 times a week haha
It is very good aha so filling
I think you could leave a tip at those eating places after such good meals for the cheap prices
You can go and tip them can't you if you want to so bad.
You ate that noodles like was made made of rice dough called "idiappam"
Yes!
Big respect ✊
Thanks so much
@@EllisWR man of fire 🔥
Love the way u guys learn Tamil and try to speak
good stuff finding and trying that wood apple fruit...ive never tried it, nor even heard of it until now, and i collect rare fruit plants lol
Ey it is worth trying such an interesting little fruit
37:21 u guys was her first customers, probably. u see what she did. That is normally when we have our first guest in sri lanka.
Ohhh super interesting I see now
❤JAFFNA ❤

Yalpanam யாழ்ப்பாணம் தான் சரி
As a Sri Lankan my favourite juice is wood apple..... And if you wish you can buy wood apple juice bottles from supermarkets.... Big fan of you 😊
It's so good! Thanks so much ❤️🙏
Crows and Blue Jays are the worst! They are very intelligent! Lots of interesting food in this one!
Climb ada'ms peak ( sripadha ) from rathnapura road life time experience ..trust my word mate
Looks incredible
FK thats the AUTHENTIc kottu wen they make with so much sound, meaning the metal skewers really do the job of shredding, not preshed and using skewers for show....the real deal man
Ahah it was sooooo loud. But good
Im bringing spoon in my pocket if i ever visit these places. Fuck that 😂
Ahahah they always give you one mate don't worry
Here they are!!! ❤
Hey!!
9:35 you're right that's an auction. The fisherman bring it fresh catch and auction them off to the dealers.thats how it works
Very interesting!
My mum used to make wood apple juice with coconut milk and it’s heavenly. But I do understand it’s not for everyone. Just like the durian. Btw While you’re in Jaffna try the authentic kool. It’s kind of a seafood soup with bits of seafood and vegetables along with palmyra root powder. I bet you’ll love it.
Sounds great thanks for suggestions!!
@@EllisWR you’re welcome mate ❤️
Did you recently change your mic or camera setup? There is just too much wind and background noise! Your earlier videos in India were not like that though...
Good travels...The kothu looked delish with mutton curry! Not sure you enjoyed the wood apple....should try the chickoo juice and passion fruit juice as well.
It is a strange taste, I've had quite a few now and they are usually sweeter! Will have to try that Jane!
@@EllisWR I prefer custard apple, it's more creamy!
@@JaneDoe-jl5it Custard apples are so good!
Go to RIO ice-cream in jaffna. That's a must when you visit jaffna😂💔
Ahaha maybe we did
Wood Apple - VILAAM Pazham in Tamil - you can Buy in Eelam TAMIL SHOPS IN England.
Best Kottu in Colombo and kandy 👌
Is it??
@@EllisWR absolutely. There're many places. Oh don't miss the Aluth kade street food also a good place. One of the delicious food street in Srilanka
That fruit is called water apple or Java apple
Do you like em?
@@EllisWR very much. It is not sugary but it's good to keep us hydrated during summer.
50:23 red syrup from red syrup tree ?
No idea
Red syrup is rose syrup😌

Next country? 🤔
Secret
Hi.... Rockstars.... 👌👌👌
Hey!!
Any possible destinations you could let us know your visiting in Lanka. I know you guys are doing trinco and Batticaloa but anywhere else you guys are thinking of visiting?
A couple of other places you'll see soon!
@@EllisWR Dopeee man Batticalo some of the chillest people ever. They vibee like no other. I grew up there those people are hella fun to be around.
@@Skylotgh We loved it there!!
Did you know.. There are many jambu varieties that range from rose apple, water apple and wax apple that come in different sizes and colours ranging from dark red to pinkish white, the most common is the small red variety. However, all of them have a slightly sweet watery taste.
I think you tried the Wax Jambu . The unique fruit is a beautiful bright green colour and is shaped like a bell. The fruit's snowy white flesh is crisp and refreshing like an apple and has a light, mildly sweet and flowery rose flavour.
Wood apple is one of the common names of an edible fruit from several trees. The fruit shape resembles an apple and the name wood apple is due to the fruit hard shell. Native to India, the tree is cultivated in other countries such in Pakistan, Sri-Lanka, and Bangladesh. The fruit is also known as elephant-apple, monkey fruit, or crud fruit.
Shame about the weather ..
Again thanks for all the info! They are a funny little fruit
@@EllisWR next time choose the red ones , they taste sweeter . . Personally, I hate wood apple but I see you enjoy it.
Very nice bro
Thanks!!
What is your Camera? GoproHero12?
No sony fdrx3000!
That jambu is so unripe. That's why it's cheap. The ripe ones tastes good
Will try again
26:59 thats some sort of paniyaram. Don't know what they call it in jaffna though
I thought so!
@@EllisWR Don't forget to visit kandy the best spot in SL for nature lovers
Same thing in jaffna. Paniyaram
They crows are hungry guys just like you are, scraps will do PLEASE 🙏💕
We hate them literally hundreds of them irritating things and they make a right mess!!
Why don’t you visit Eastern province of Sri lanka? You said you don’t like to visit touristy places yet you still didn’t visit Trincomalee, Batticoaloa and Ampara. Not trying to be rude but hope you will consider :)
He will be upcoming videos will be
My friend give us time ahah. We've only just started our series...
Unlike your traditional Sri Lankan rice & curry, kottu is already chopped up & mixed. So eating with hands serves no purpose & I believe most locals would also use a spoon.
Used to love woodapple jam as a kid either on bread, coconut roti or pancakes.
Just looked around and everybody in the shop was using hands, easier I think anyway.
We will have to try that sounds well good!!
The. Food. Is. Excellent. Send. Me. Some. U. K
I wish I could aha
Can u pls tour ur home town i m very much excited to see that
What town?!
@@EllisWR I mean where u belong to
England
@@EllisWR Durham?
Interesting that you speak to Tamil people using Tamil words. The vast majority of tourists assume that everyone in Sri Lanka speaks Sinhala, and so try to use Sinhala words with Tamil speakers as well, ignorant of the fact that they speak a completely different language.
So, thank you for doing your homework thoroughly 😊
Most tourists don't care about much and the youtubers are awful they just make videos for views and aren't interested in anything!
We can get a feel if someone is Tamil or sinhalese. In Tamil areas we will just speak Tamil!
Thanks for watching 🙏
When r u coming back to india again?
No idea!
Go to central province
Like where?
@@EllisWRnuwara eliya. Kandy. badulla
Maybe! We usually stick to places that don't already have hundreds of vlogs and westerners! 🙏
@@EllisWR um westerners only visit kandy town or certain parts of those provinces. There are plenty of places
While you are in Yalpanam,Eelam Thamizh Nation, Y NOT taste the Yalpanam Signature Dish - ODIYAL Kool with various Seafood including Carbs, Squid, etc with lot of Vegetables?
Must try this 👌this signature food 4 health 😋
Peace be upon you, you will see the country a lot, but there will be no country like Pakistan anywhere in the world. The people of Pakistan are very hospitable and respectful people, especially the Pathans.
No need to compare. Many countries are also hospitable in the same way 🙏
You must have an International Driver's licence
No we just drive uninsured we're happy with that, never been asked for any license in any country to be honest.
@@EllisWR and driving with one hand with a camera. You're the OG.
WAY BLOODY LATE TODAY 🤣🤣🤪
No good!!
That jumbu is not ripe!!!! It turns pink when its rip
We tried again soon!
