chicken 65, followed by a main course which has egg briyani, onion raita,chicken
curry, tandoori chicken, paratha and channa masala. Its not over yet, everything
needs a desert right so we had a yummy mango cheese cake which is soooo good..I
am so happy that cooked for a Australian family and that uncle is a chef. I am so happy to cook for them.We all enjoyed
lunch so much and had a great time
together..

those days..It makes you so refreshing as well as makes you full. Please try it

I was so dull and dizzy this whole day, my whole body
was paining like hell..Finally I realized that I am having a cold
fever. Now it is pretty controllable and my pain was a lot more reduced..My
totally family is just kidding me that this is not cold fever, but it is
“WEDDING FEVER”..I don’t know if it is true or not( Believe me). Hopefully I
should get relieved tomorrow and start my week with a blast.
Now coming to the recipe..I was thinking for a recipe
which starts with the letter “Q”..I know it has to be quesadilla, but was
searching for a nice stuffing for that. Finally decided to make a simple
breakfast quesadilla with eggs and cheese and it cameout so good..How couldn’t
it not be good, anything with eggs and cheese is wonderful right..Grilling the tortilla till it turn
golden make the outer layer turn like a crispy shell that contains the creamy
egg and cheese.. I hope you will like it and tell me how it turned out.

flavourful..As a kid we loved it a lot.Even now my sister ask my mom to make it
often. Thinking about this reminds me about my childhood days..
