Chitvish Recipes - Post your comments here (part 3)

Dear Mrs. Chitvish,

Though it has been long since I wrote to you, I have been having a look at this forum everyday and seeing all your postings with awe!

I have become a big fan of your recipes and also your attitude in life!

I have been trying so many of your dishes, but do not get time to give regular updates:

1. Made carrot-cheese paratha (added a bit of beetroot also in it) - We loved it and it was so soft. I even get new ideas for parathas seeing your recipes. Thanks for them!

2. I make your rice varieties often - paneer capsicum rice, capsicum rice, ghuska biryani, masoor dhal rice, etc

3. Desserts - Love your variety of recipes. My daughter has asked for a cake this weekend and will give feedback on that too.

Whenever I am in a bad mood, I come to your forum, see the recipes, feedback, tips, etc and I feel better.

Regards,
Vidya

Dear C

Made my favourite caramel popcorn yesterday....! Absolutely loved it. For the popcorn, I found a tip to add just a couple kernels in oil. When it pops added the rest and swriled the closed container. This yielded a bountyful batch of evenly cooked popcorn with just one or two kernels left out. I had tried another proportion of caramel popcorn before, but felt it sugary and was left with more syrup. Yours is foolproof...:thumbsup

This morning, made one whistle greens for the first time. The best part is, I could visualise the recipe from the step-by-step pictures and when I checked out the recipe after I made from memory, I was perfectly right( barring the amount of greens and tomato ). Many thanks for all your efforts to make life easy for us. I have started using PP more often now.
