Since I live in an apartment with a little kitchenette with no doors or windows, and have developed clogged arteries, I decided to eat oil free food. My solution was to prepare jhol in a crockpot in which I added every ingredient and let it slow cook. The dish looks like my concept of jhol and contains no added oil.<br />Tahera Rashid<br />tahera.rashid@gmail.comAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10315599714139905303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35578975.post-54317325269234740262009-04-28T00:59:00.000-04:002009-04-28T00:59:00.000-04:00Went through your blog & loved it.
About mysel...Went through your blog & loved it.<br />About myself in short :Born & brought up in Kolkata a non bong though,(settled in Singapore) love to eat bengali food.<br />Came here in search of 'luchi aloor dum'. Found the recipe also but after seeing this 7 day plan i think I'll go for this first.<br />Would be glad if you could share the recipe of 'kosha mansho'.<br />Happy Cooking!Priyankahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08881991508408399332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35578975.post-32606737558300028072009-04-23T23:16:00.000-04:002009-04-23T23:16:00.000-04:00she-ki??!!
