My awesome tenth day in Kerala continued in the city of Kannur in the northern part of the state that afternoon and evening. Come along with me and my friends as we enjoy Indian street food in Kannur, including mussel tapioca, buffalo chili, and patel mutton in Kerala, India!

My afternoon began with a mini road trip from Kasaragod to Kannur. We started with a visit to Sree Subrahmanya Swami Temple. They have a pond that is home to lots of fish!

Ebbin and I got a bag of puffed rice (20 rupees/$0.26 USD) to feed them. I threw a handful in. A bunch of them swarmed up and sucked it all down like vacuums! While you must be Hindu to go inside the temple, anyone can feed the fish.

We hit the road again and drove through Payyanur, where we grabbed some sugarcane juice. We got three glasses for 60 rupees/$0.78 USD!

Once we made it to Kannur, we started our street food tour with puttu with beef, which is rice powder mixed into beef curry. On top, he added cucumber, lettuce, carrots, and more onion. It was like spicy, non-veg polenta! It only cost 80 rupees/$1.04 USD.

Then, we found some tapioca with spicy mussels and meter chai. The mussels paired nicely with the soft tapioca. It was really spicy with the chilies and curry leaves, and the onion gave it a nice crunch. The chai also paired well with it! It also only cost 80 rupees/$1.04 USD.

After more chai, we headed to another neighborhood to find more foods. The previous place was mostly stationary food trucks, but his was more like a restaurant. There, we tried mutton liver with patel, a Malabar dish mixed with mutton liver. They were making parottas, beef chili, and a lot more!

The beef chili is like a beef stir-fry with chilies and red chili flakes. You eat it with crispy, layered, and flaky parottas. The beef chili was spicy, tender, and super juicy. I loved the red chili flakes. It was too good! It reminded me of a sweet and spicy Chinese ofrMongolian beef. It was one of my favorite dishes in Kerala!

Next up was the patel with mutton liver. Patel is almost like a puri and is cut into strips and mixed with the meat and masala and topped with onions. It was doughy and crispy and full of liver flavor. The curry had melted throughout the patel, which was doughy on the inside. It wasn’t too spicy, but the onion calmed it down.

The diversity in the cuisine was blowing my mind. With so many combinations available, you could easily have 100 different dishes. The liver cost 90 rupees/$1.17 USD, the beef chili was 80/$1.04 USD, and the parottas were 10 rupees/$0.13 USD each.

Then, we got some dessert to finish our night at Calicut Fruit Stall. There, I started with fresh carrot smoothie, which was super milky and delicious! Then, we got some kadhi, a thick milkshake containing walnuts, almonds, cashews, sugar, and milk cream. It was a nutty, milky slushy and was nice and refreshing. I loved the crunch of the nuts! It only cost 80 rupees/$1.04 USD. I finished it up while taking some selfies with some fans!

We made it back to the Seashell Haris Beach Resort. My buddy Roshan brought me a surprise to end the night—a one-liter bottle of Kingfisher Strong Beer!
