  5. Dear Viju
    I am delighted to see your comment at my blog...
    You have an amazing space and postings..
    This dish is very new for me and will try soon as a radical departure from Bong chana dal.
    You are a vege I guess...so even if I post non vege dishes, I try to put a vege option too.
    I liked the introduction in your profile.
    . I liked those small but precious postings, a camera from hubby , or the tatoo. Let me see what all you have here :-)
    Have a nice week
