Simple and yummy stir fry
Dear Raksha, Thanks a lot for sharing with us the importance of water conservation. moreover, your stir fry looks so yummy and healthy.

We pay so much for a water tanker & those fellows are so irresponsible!
BTW, batani usli looks yummy!
The way Bangalore is growing, it is not long before all the population has to depend on the tankers! Wonder where they get the water from!
And the dish real simple to make! In tamil cuisine, we make the same thing with soaked kabuli channa and skip the onions since it is given as a prasaad after puja.
delicious sundal raksha.. really a encouraging incident dear..
Yum stir fry. Happy new year Raksha
Super recipe…looks flavorful & delicious..
It looks simply delicious.
Yup already half of Bangalore is dependent on water tankers.
We too make the same dish without onion on special days 🙂
Thanks everyone for the lovely comments.
Eye opener incident and nice curry
Thank U raksha! it feels good even by one message!
These are Batani's? or Channa? I love such simple ones always!
They are Batani , but u can use any type of chanas
