Moreover, she also shares the tricks and tips, more the flavors in the food. She stated that, “Each and every ingredient has its own, and so try to avoid other masala’s which leads to destroy the flavor of the ingredient, instead gives out the flavor of the ingredient” Let me share the dishes she cooked over there…
