One fine day, I had been left to complete lunch for a few people. The first is ofcourse myself and the other one particular someone is my sister. I ought to talk couple of words about my sister at this time. She's a picky eater, specifically when she involves the house. If she sees some boring lunch menu, she starts whining at me..She always want something from me. This is actually the stuff that we made when she gave a unpredicted trip to the house..In my misfortune on that day i made curd grain alone, and so i chose to make this for that the two of us to savor an attractive mid-day..Lets remember the desert..I designed a special muffin on her, which is soon published here.
This really is this type of simple grain dish, which does not need much work. However the taste is really mouthwateringly good. The flavours and spices which are through this dish is ideal. I offered this spicy grain with homemade yogurt, which chilled the spices within this. Check it out without a doubt, you'll like it.
