Awesome round up ! And now with this round up I realised that I have missed reading the Coorgi post ! Will hop over and read .
I have to admit that you are a superwoman who is so passionate about cooking. Cooking for two blogs and especially this!
In this series I specifically fell in love with the Dhakai Paratha, and intend making it very soon. I have been talking none stop about it to the family - he he!
And let me tell you all your posts are excellent, so much research. The nonveg one's were not for some of us but I know it's a task to cook and a lot of effort is required. Kudos Valli!, the Superwoman if the group 🥰

This is an amazing roundup and I really enjoyed and learned a lot from your posts.
