What is "Muleti" or whatever it is that Sinchan keeps referring too ?
I searched in the forums and didn't find a reference. perhaps my spelling is incorrect :-)

Various preparations of liquorice are administered in cough, gastric ,duodenal, ulcers, cardiac asthma, hypertension, rheumatoid arthritis and dermatitis. Liquorice is sweet in taste and is also used as a preservative. The extract is used to flavour cigarettes, chewing and snuff tobacco. As a sweetener it is used in chocolates, chewing gums, candies and baked food thus making them healthier to eat rather than harmful.

I thought it was like a south-indian dish.. like upama or something

Oh well.. even Alka Yagnik looked like she'd never heard of it. The southie judges did though 😆
