It been nearly 3 weeks since I updated my site. So sorry ...I am on vacation with my kid to Chennai. I don't know how time flies by this fast, something keeps coming and I get busy with it. Lots of traveling ,meeting up old friends and relative and too many things happening at this short period of trip, I have absolutely no time to cook at home since I am enjoying the luxury of my mom's cooking.
Well She made this recently and I make it very often too.Its a very healthy and tasty dish that will go very well with rice and with perfect side dish it just taste so awesome. It's loaded with good stuff,full of drumsticks pulp so lots of iron and kids will love it when you mix it with ghee and feed them. Now off to recipe....
