Namkin chawal
I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. Here this weekend we had a nice weather to enjoy outside and we really had wonderful time with our friends visiting us. We went to casino and need less to say we enjoyed more even after losing money. Anyways coming back to the post which is a simple rice dish .
Who does not love one pot meal, it’s the easiest and quickest thing to fix in jiffy without compromising the taste. Usually I use what all veggies I have in the fridge for this. I make this on any busy weekend for the lunch and serve with yogurt and some onion salad. It is the best comfort food any time. My mom use to give this for lunch to school whenever we said that we are tired of having rotis. So, she will make this and pack our lunch boxes with some pickle. So, here goes the recipe for the same:
