  1. This is a fabulous recipe! I work with a gentleman from Nepal and he introduced me to a number of different foods. When I found this I was thrilled! I asked him to look it over and he said it was very authentic. If you like indian foods and are ready to try something new this is it! I only wish I could make naan well enough to do hs justice.
     
  2. This was excellent! I made it as a main dish over couscous. The only change I made was that we dipped them in sour cream. Absolutely fabulous! Thank you for sharing this recipe!
     
  3. Another different and wonderful flavor. Together with the tomato achar, this makes a great appetizer that is totally unexpected and unique. Thanks!
