I make so many of your recipes and love them all! Tried this this weekend, and it came out superb. Also love your dosa/iddly recipe, rava iddly, and podi too. I've been cooking Indian food for years now (my partner is Indian) and I never get tired of it 🙂 thanks for continuing to inspire me!

Tried this recipe this weekend and it came out superb. We had after a day of fasting, along with sabudana khichdi, sauteed sprouts, and fried iddly (a feast!). Always love making your recipes because I know they'll come out great, and the step-by-step photos help a ton. I cook a lot of Indian food as my partner is Indian, and I never get tired of it! Your iddly/dosa, rava iddly, and podi are all favorites of ours. Looking forward to trying your fish fry next. Thanks for all of the inspiration!
