I am a regular reader of GoodFood magazine. It has such an amazing collection of really good and easy recipes. This month there was an article of dishes from Kangra region(Himachal Praesh). The recipes were amazing, I have tried a couple of them and they were amazing. Here I am sharing one such recipe which is very easy and tasty. So here is the recipe... Happy cooking...
