Best recipe


Chef comments: Karele ka Halwa by Asmita is a very nice and creative dish. It has the nutritive value (if not cooked too much) and is very different from the other vegetable halwas. If the sugar is replaced with sugarfree and the amount of khoya is reduced, it could be in line as a health food item. My compliments to Asmita on a wonderful recipe.”
