We don?t weigh the food we cook. We estimate the amount a serving size is. The key to take from the analysis of a recipe is if it''s healthy and fits into your lifestyle. When in doubt, eat less of that recipe.

Gavarfali is bitter so i dont really like it.. But the taste of gavarfali tastes really different in this recipe. The gravy of the subzi has a strong taste of curd.. It is delicious..
