Avril, Thank you, makes me happy
I have been following your cooking for last six years and your motherly approach reminds me of my ma every time.God bless u.
I just made this recipe and converted it for an electric pressure cooker. Besides cutting back a tad on the water, I also had to cube the potatoes, because of course, they went in raw, not cooked. Worked like a charm, and very tasty.
Can you suggest a second dish to complement this one that I could serve along side it and the rice?
Your veg receipes are so good n tasty….i just love them.
Moumita, Thanks, made me happy
