Jonathan and I both loved this recipe!! We had to substitute several things (heresy?? 😬😂😂) BUT, it ended up tasted amazing, so I can imagine how incredible the result of following the exact recipe would be. Thank you for sharing your delicious recipes, life experiences, and linguistic knowledge with the world, Chandrika!

Thanks Kyra! And substitutions - definitely not heresy in my world! :) So glad you are adapting the recipes to fit what you have!

I love this Chandrika. So happy to see you are doing this! I'm on day 3 of a 5 day fast, however, so I had to skim past the photos of food pretty quickly. A picnic business *is* kinda brilliant. Just sayin...

It's so wonderful to treasure our good memories.

And yes, the simple dishes can offer the most rewarding experiences.

Sometimes I still make your lime rice! Also, a coconut rice you taught us. :-)

In unrelated news, I have found a perfume that's the closest I've ever gotten to petrichor: Solstice Scents' During the Rain perfume oil. I do wear it every day, and I recommend it highly.
