Glad to know that things r fine with Aarthii...:) Hope to see her back in the hub soon...:D
Yummy pavakkai recipe... Penne arabiatta sound very easy... will try all the pasta recipes one by one from next week... got to do some pasta n cheese shopping...
K, I remember watching some cookery show on TLC which featured a very simple pasta recipe using lemon rind n lemon juice... I forgot the exact name of it... but it was like lemon linguine or somethng...recipe therinjaal time kidaikum podhu post pannuna...
Dev, I had this lemon linguine pasta recipe in mind for you.
My sis-in-law in US is crazy about these pastas.
She will always take us to the Olive Garden for pasta.
Her lady boss is clever in cooking pastas.
So she learned all the recipes from her.
Nammalukku, once in a way is fine, otherwise the recipes
are just bland, nalla kara sarama irunthaal thaan pidikkum :lol:
Thats why I always cook it Indianised way.
I will be missing you when you go on your holidays :cry2: :cry2: Enjoy your holidays Dev. Take care, Kugan98
My dear friends, Kugan's Kitchen takes the opportunity to wish everyone a very MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR.
