Manjula, really some great recipes in here.

March 7, 2010 at 11:03 pmThank you very much for this web site! Within the last year and a half I broke up with a very special Indian girl and was spoiled on a daily basis with Ayurvedic and traditional Indian cooking from her mother. I stupidly after almost three years never learned how to cook the food properly. Your site has been a savior to me! I take my laptop into my kitchen and it feels as if I have my very own personal chef. Thanks again.

Thank you.
