Every year we celebrate Independence Day.It gives me a patriotic feeling.This year we are celebrating Amrit Mahotsav on completion of 75 years of independence.To celebrate this I have made rice and dal idlis and to give it orange colour I have used carrot 🥕 and for green colour mint leaves.Both are very nutritious - full of Vit.A and iron.We love South Indian dishes.
