Someone messages me the the other day and asked me for the recipe of khichdi, I was so surprised that in the last two years, I haven’t shared the most obvious recipe in easy cooking.
A chunk of ER readers are the ones who live alone and either a student or have a regular job. It is quite though to for them to make time to try all the delightful recipes. But a delicious food doesn’t have to be tough to prepare.
