This cracker cups were so cute. I saw the recipe at cookingbread.com. I did little changes to the original recipe and the result was fabulous. It doesn’t contain butter and so you can eat it guilt free. Next time I would love to prepare it using only atta and I…
Kashmiri Dum Aloo
I got this recipe from a news paper cutting, collected when I was studying college. Usually I don’t prepare this because my hubby doesn’t like this type of subzi for rotis. He always needs a gravy to go with rotis. So while preparing Dum aloo I took half of the…
