Once upon a time, I was very fond of cooking – and
experimenting with world recipes. I could watch Food channels for hours
together and then mix and match recipes. I would never save any of the recipes.
Or write it down – because I could always change some. Or remember some.
Somewhere, in the last 5 years, I totally lost interest in cooking. I became
more of a chore – for when I have to – or for when some guests were there. Or
for once in a while – for “one of those days”.
Recently – with my focus on healthy cooking drive – I began
experimenting again – and so far, I am pleased with my resultsJ. And also my family –
who has no choice but to say what I cook is yummy of course. I also decided
that I will save some recipes – for later!!
Sharing the recipe –and next time, I will start saving
pictures as wellJ.
And of course, right quantities!
