Its been so long that I have blogged, feels like I never stopped though have been waiting to get back to blogging and feels so good to be back. I hope to blog atleast once in a while now.

Though having a baby changes everything am glad that it did not change my desire to cook and try new dishes, its even more fun now cooking for my daughter and how I can plan a meal in which I can please hers and my husbands taste buds. Luckily my daughter who is 2.5 years now loves her spices and she even enjoys cooking with me.

Today is one such dish which was easy and loved by all. I have been trying out Master Chef Tarla Dalal's recipe with great success. This is one of her recipe with just the addition of garlic, for me where there is methi there has to be garlic. Fry them ahead of time and then when time to serve I put them in the oven at 350 F for about 10 to 15 minutes.
