MARRIAGE OFFERING THAT WASN’T IN THE DEAL
BEEN 9 years since we are MARRIED... π°π€΅
MUMBAI having the best STREET FOOD like VADA PAV, SAMOOSA AND CHATS... π£π₯π²π₯π₯
That’s got spicy π₯΅ GREEN CHUTNEY, sweet and sour TAMRIND AND DATE SAUCE, a fried GREEN CHILI
More than being reasonable π€it’s just simply AN EXPLOSION π₯ OF VARIOUS FLAVORS..!!!!
So much of FUN π€©HAPPENING IN THE MOUTH π
AS We came to Mumbai, lockdown, π SADLY We had to give up street food!!!!!
The CRAVINGS begins for fried onion fitters... π
And I was asked if I know how to make it... π€
Well, I hated frying food!!! π€¦♀️π

“You got me Married to your
DAUGHTER WHO CAN COOK ALMOST EVERYTHING BUT A BHAJIYA??? (Onion fitter)”.

DeleteOnion is my all time favourite you fry it you enjoy it you put it in any other dish you enjoy it when having rotis u can eat it
ReplyDeleteBut nothing like Onion pakoda
Natasha when you do so many dishes you can also try different types of onion Pakodas I don't think anyone will refrain from eating it
Monsoon has set in and a great combination would be onion Pakodas with tea and cloudy climate with lots of rain and thunder
