        Hi Smitha,

        Thank you so much :)

        Though I’m in Bahrain for sometime, I haven’t yet tried Majboos. I think its something like biriyani, right?

        Anyways, I’ll keep this in mind, if ever I come across a good recipe :)

        Cheers

      hi Maria!

      i tried out the chilli paneer gravy..felt tangy taste was less in it..do u think adding a tomato while sauteing will help?

      • http://mariasmenu.com Maria Jose

        Hi Radhika,

        I guess you can add a tbsp of tomato ketchup if you like to increase the tanginess. I havent tried adding tomato in this, but it should be ok.

        Cheers
        Maria
