Foodie bloggers, food lovers, and to all with an authentic Indian taste, a hearty welcome to a sumptuous journey of mouth-watering dishes. In spite of changing trends in eating habits, I feel that some recipes have stood the test of time and still reign supreme. They are enjoyed during any course of the meal.
