And today I tried, but with my own touch-ups. To say that I really liked it is the least. Thanks for the recipe :)<br /><br />http://mypenmypage.blogspot.inSubha Manojhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08894921023505209087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5266584174625042713.post-87673113110971521332010-10-25T16:16:01.770-04:002010-10-25T16:16:01.770-04:00My Darling Pree:

The Dal & Pulao came out nice..

And need I say we really liked it with plain rice. <br /><br />@shooting star, try a simple potato-cauliflower sauté with panch phoron, that should taste good too. <br /><br />@Paridhi, thank you for writing in, comments and feedback like yours make this Blog richer. I believe if its not easy to cook, then it should not be on my Blog, life needs to be simple in the kitchen, there are too many complications outside of it anyway. Enjoy your Chholar Dal and Mishti Pulao. Mangsho and Mishti Pulao has been my favorite since I was a kid.PreeOccupiedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11976093401508848605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5266584174625042713.post-22830888991922444742010-10-20T09:48:48.195-04:002010-10-20T09:48:48.195-04:00Hi Pree,

I am a non-Bengali married to a Bong and moved to London recently. The craving for authentic, tasty food is huge and cooking myself seems to be the only option. I tried a couple of your recipes - Dhokar Dalna, Payesh, Khichudi, Aloo Dom and Luchi in the past 10 days and all of them turned out really nice. Thanks for the elaborate recipes with the pictures which make it look so easy!<br /><br />Am planning on making the Cholar Dal with Mishti Pulao today for dinner.<br /><br />Cheers,<br /><br />Paridhiparidhihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12114395210422530928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5266584174625042713.post-54682897784454779652010-10-20T00:04:05.498-04:002010-10-20T00:04:05.498-04:00Not a karela fan unless you fry the dickens out if...Not a karela fan unless you fry the dickens out if it, but my dad will eat it in any form, he loves it, so must make for him next time he visits.
