Superb dish! I used only a teaspoon of crushed chilli in the paste and it was enough. My family relished this! Thank you.

CB - really yummy and easy to make! However, I felt the garlic overshadowed the taste of the badam. I would make it next next without garlic and lesser whole red chilli

The recipe surely looks delicious but I couldn''t make it as it requires a microwave which I don''t have. One suggestion, kindly tag recipes which requires any specific cooking medium like microwave as everybody might not have one. Rest the app and recipes are superb. Kindly add a section of quick and easy recipes for bachelors or single people. Thanks for this mouthwatering app :)
