Apologies for being a lazy bum and not making anything blog worthy over the weekend. The DH came home after a week long trip and left again on Monday Morning.
He rightfully calls our home a well-kept barn, where he can get clothes washed, ironed, have breakfast in bed, watch TV, read, go for a walk but all of that with a companion :)
This is one of him MOST favourite Gujarati dish.
It uses very basic ingredients and tastes absolutely magnificent.
Cheen is nothing but anything that is grated well. In this case it is Corn cobs grated. However you may use the packaged corn. You need to blend it with a little milk till it is of an almost-puree consistency.
