Though many things changed over the period of time…..my love for cricket is still the same. Thanks to technology….now I can watch any of my favourite matches the repeated times at my ease and can even watch the missed matches. Ican check score online and can even watch the match in my mobile on go….No one wants to miss cricket world cup….it is a religion to many…..keeping this mind lots and lots of offers are popping up…even a simple ‘galli’ grocery store in my area is giving out world cup offers on normal grocery items like basmati rice, pulses, sugar, oil, etc., such is the craze for the game in my country…..My inbox is getting over loaded with coupons, discounts and

Get coupon, order food, save money and enjoy cricket. Returning back from the cricket mania…..straight into today’s recipe….

I found this age old fragile paper where I scribbled some recipes in a very shortcut way….I scribbled these chutney’s just moments before leaving my mom’s house to Bangalore for the first time after marriage…..this piece of paper is very special to me…..
In this paper I came across this pudine ki chutney recipe….This chutney is one of my very favourite and I make it more often….but it never occurred to me to make it to my blog…so today just to keep the memory alive…I thought of blogging this simple but yummy chutney. All you need is steamed hot rice, a dollop of ghee and this tantalizing chutney to treat your taste buds. Fryums will be added glory to a simple food like this….
