Sajian ini cukup popular di restuarant-restuarant India terutama di UK. Cukup sesuai kalau digandingkan dengan sebarang nasi bertumis seperti nasi minyak, nasi tomato dsb. Pedas-pedas manis dengan campuran madu. Untuk garam masalanya saya sangrai biji buah pelaga dan bunga cengkih kemudian dikisar halus dan campurkan dengan pes cili. Kering dan tidak begitu berkuah. Cukup enak. Semasa menghidang taburkan sedikit bawang goreng dan daun ketumbar

  2. Salam Ramadan buat Mas and family. Dah 13 hari ya kita puasa kejap aje. Minggu depan dah sibuk buat kuih raya. Resipi ni pandai-pandailah adjust, kalau nak pedas kurangkan madu begitu juga disebaliknya. Memang popular Indian menu.
