Just delicious! When I make rice, I just make…rice! You give it SO much thought and care.
delicious n tempting rice.
gosh this is delicious.. mouth watering!! 🙂
Prema I think if you add urad dal then it will taste more like dosa milagai podi. My version of elli podi is without urad dal and the rest are all same.
