Yummy Nandu! As I follow your recipes more and more I started to realize that they might look very familiar at the first glance but once we follow the entire recipe, there are very many subtle improvisations you have made. Adding an additional ingredient or two for that added flavor(s) and at times the method(s) you follow too would have a tweak or two which make all the difference. It's like our very own Maa ka khaana 2.0 with all the innovation PS: I know everyone else on this thread already knew all this years ago. My lil rant was more for the benefit of untrained eye(s) who might miss the forest for the trees, going by just the name of the dish, like I did for a long time.
Wow well said dear @Lalithambigai Yes end of the day it's our MA ka khaana with some tweaks and twists here and there to adjust our taste buds
