Finally! I got my hands on Kasoori Methi....dried fenugreek leaves! The aroma of these dried leaves gave a twist to my normal chicken curry. To make the dish extra special, I add light sour cream.

Friends, what do you do when you followed a recipe 100% (cook/ bake) but still end up with negative result? Who do you blame, the recipe? The recipe owner? Or yourself? Will you just blame yourself and will  try the recipe again with some alteration or maybe the same? To be frank, I tried and tested uncountable recipes from the net and cookbooks this far.

And I don't mind cooking or baking the same recipes ( if I'm really interested ), atleast until am satisfied. Now, you must be thinking why am I pointing out this matter today. I just wanted you to know this is ME!!! Do not give up when
