Its been a long time, since I have posted a non veg recipe. I was just being loyal to my tried & tested recipes. I came across this recipe in a cookery show. Its a dry preparation which can be used as starters or can be a side dish with friedrice. You can also make fish in the same way.

Hi Seeba, I guess there is a difference between tomato sauce and ketchup. You can see more details about it here: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20071207173806AADJTVE
