Come winters and the variety of vegetables that is available off the shelf is just amazing. The word pulao takes me back in time when hot steaming pulao used to make the freezing winters so very warm and enjoyable. That hot pulao and spicy raita enjoyed from the cosy comforts of home as you watched the fog… sigh! While I think about my good ol’ days…why dont you check out the recipe? …let me know how you liked it though!

As a teenager I was always interested in “special” cooking…which involved some amount of work. Regular cooking never interested me then. Another intention was to surprise my family members on the dining table. So whenever I got in mood for some cooking, I used to drive everyone off from the kitchen. I remember making Lauki ka Kofta then and it came out delicious. This is the same recipe for Lauki ka Kofta with inclusions like paneer and raisin made as per suggestion from my mom. You have to try it
This is one dish which Q loves and it doesn’t take much of my time also…now that is the combination we all look at most of the time….don’t we? More taste and less work! You must try out this simple Mushroom recipe
Hate standing in the Kitchen heat for long?
