      Dear Hari, thankyou for your time on this blog. I hope you will not take this sugestion adversely : would you please also name your dishes in englipsh, in the title, so we could immediately see if this is a recipe we can relate to without having to read all of it ? For someone new to indian dishes, it is hard to find a way in so many names that do not convey things I can relate to. Thank you again and carry on with your fine work. Best regards, Maria, from Portugal.
