i love trying foods from other cultures. im gonna keep this in mind to try sometime. by the way thanks for showing how to wash foods before cooking. not many cooking shows show this and in result many people cook without proper rinsing. Even if it comes in a bag "prewashed" rinse your food properly!! Some people just put too much faith in the food or medical industry these days.

Chicky, thanks for watching and leaving a comment. this is a very easy recipe that you can play around with the ingredients in it by adding different veggies or nuts and change the spices to suit your own taste. i agree about washing the items before using them in cooking. :)

[cookingtheeasyway]

so, have you married that lady? if so, congratulations and you are lucky that you found a woman that makes you happy and CAN cook!! very rare these days! :)

i still think it does NOT matter what you cook as long as you are in love with your partner. :)

[SimpleMohammed]

it does matter! :-) pretty much...once i was invited to an Iranian house and the young lady came out saying: "i cooked this meal specially for mohammed" I swear to god i loved that lady and i did propose to her! :-) no kidding lol
