  1. Looks yum. Your pictures are mouth-watering. I never tried mixing up paneer with the methi. Also just wondering – what’s the anardana for? Does it give a special flavour?
    By the way I tried the pear and pomegranate salad, turned out great. Added some honey so the kids loved it too. Thanks.

    • Oh yes. It is my list. The gozleme is my list to make and also on my culinary map.
      Lemme know how it turns out 🙂

Thank you for dropping by :)
