"We have learnt How to go to the MOON, but we haven't yet learnt how to live on EARTH, our only Hope and Home". I have read it in one of my official mail and is quoted by Anish.P.Joel.How true this quote is.
Since morning i was thinking what shall i put in my blog today and was chatting with one of my dear friend, Shivani. She told me about this amazing recipe. This is made by Nepalis and is served with Puris or Paranthas. Quite an amazing dish. I tried it and my mom has already eaten 2 bowls of it.

ReplyDeleteSo you don't cook the boiled potatoes in this? It really sounds interesting. Will have to buy sesame for this. Will do that and make it for office lunch one of these days. Thanks for this unique recipe!
