It has been a while since i sat down to post any new dishes in my blog. The truth is i did not tryout any new dishes for a while now. June had been a very hectic month for us because of the packing and moving due to change of apt. However, keeping a 3 1/2yr old at home, i managed to set things in place in about two weeks and was happily releaved from the stress of packing and unpacking. After a week we started noticing tiny little spiders and insects in the house, informed the exterminator the next day.
The guy comes in, examines the house and says there are bugs in your house so you need to move all the things from the wall and clear things from the closet ( OMG packing again ! ) and getout of the house for 5hrs ( this part is good, i can go shoppinggggggg )inorder for him to getrid of the bugs. It is yet to happen in few days, will tell you ' what happened after dat? '. Now coming to the eating part, bcos of all this disaster happening around i was never in a mood to cook anything new. I was just browsing thru my food pictures and came across this wonderful dish i made earlier. Do not worry, this dish is bug-free :D. It is a quick n simple recipe and a wonderful side.
