I LOOOOVE this site!
I do not know how to cook many things beyond the typical saalan, qeema, biryani…well u know the basics…so this is good for me.

I’ll let you know when I have any success trying one of these out.

Keep up the grand blogging!!

Rokh, Sailu: Thanks guys! I do hope you like the recipe.

Gerald: Hi Gerald! They are not really the same, since I think Thai chillies are even more spiciew. So you might want to use them in moderation!

Are thai bird chillis (the little skinny green ones) the same as the chillis used in Indian cooking?

I agree with you,Meena…after all the indulgence in rich food this holiday season its nice to get back to our simple ‘ghar ka khana’…:)

Hi Gerald!

Nice of you to drop by.

Alu and aloo is the same thing - Potatoes, just spelt in different ways!

Do try out the recipe and I’m sure you’ll enjoy it. Its not as spicy as it looks since the red is from the tomato paste, but just spicy enough!

Meena,

I love the blog, mmm, my mouth is watering from this alu (aloo??) recipe, I need a soda now. Is this as spicy as it seems or not really?

And is there a difference between the spelling of “alu” vs “aloo”? Is it kind of like “z” vs “zed” ?? =)
