Well I told about the urad dal keerai recipe, before I left for India.
It is a very healthy recipe, as you need not use oil at all.
This recipe was given to me by my aunt.
Thanks and take care, Kugan98

P.S Tamby, Quiche is nothing, but a pastry based filled with mixed vegetables
and baked. Before I used eggs to bind the vegetables.
Let me try a vegetarian version and post the recipe.
Thanks and take care, Kugan98

Friends, the cook who came to the house did this subji.
It looked like what we do, but to my surprise, he added
a tbs of iddli flour into the subji. I was shocked.
