Thanks to all my blogger friends for their sweet comments and for eagerly waiting for more recipes from the yum blog! ЁЯЩВ
My mother became seriously ill in mid february and was hospitalised for more than three weeks. I was in Gurgoan, taking care of my mother in the hospital during day time. In the past few days, I have learnt a lot about balanced diet, physiotherapy, some info on medical science and a few yummy andhra recipes from my sister in law Padma.
You give anything to an andhra lady, she will prepare a pachadi ( thogayal or chutney) out of it! ЁЯЩВ Here’s the recipe for venthaya keerai thogayal( Fenugreek leaves chutney), Padma prepared for me.
