Gongura thota kada kapu kaasa

This is not title of a mass song from telugu movie ,Read the title again and continue reading,its been in history and to late till now most of the love stories in rural india start from the same field.Yes,I do remember few people shaking the bushes of gongura.Its a bushy tree and is available in two forms with red and green stem.Red ones are more sour.These are used in pickle and preparing tasty chicken/mutton curries.
One should try the adavi gongura it can be identified with one having more veins in the leaves .A pickle made with this will always want you to have more and more ,again and again.Now as you have completely known of gongura lets kick of the most interesting part "The Love story".
Last week i had a meeting at a hotel with one of my delegates .she's a foreigner.We have ordered lunch and waiting for the dish, meantime we were just discussing official errands.My delegate ordered a non indian dish and i as usual ordered a south indian andhra meal with which i did get this time a freshly made gongura.I was really happy and looking at my gestures she could understand that i liked it very much.She was curious to taste that.I offered her some and then she was really flattered to the taste and lifted the small cup of gongura , stared at it and said "I Love You".
Super anna my mouth keeps watering :)
