This week we are supposed to make something with the first letter of our name. So I plan to make something with “S” ….. Shaljam was the only vegetable I didn’t like it before my marriage. Then I got to know that its my husband’s favourite with boiled rice. My mom used to add sugar ingredient in shaljam which is the best tip to enhance the flavour. Now I not only makes it but also really liked it with mutton. Chicken Ke saath bhi enjoy karain. Don’t skip sugar . This is the secret ingredient.
