We (my family and friends) love the recipe and have a special place in our hearts… and have confidence that it will be surely liked by guests too…it happened in last month when couple of my friends visited our place for lunch. I prepared many items but they liked it so much that after their 1st bite only they told me “this recipe alone is more than sufficient”.
