You know that bit about the hands getting itchy, my mum used to say that in the eastern parts of the country that is in Bengal, Orissa and so on, you have to be very careful while cooking and eating this vegetable for you end up getting an itchy throat if you do not take the requisite precautions. Surprisingly here in Maharashtra we seem to have no such problems.Shilpi Bosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17815522172951304358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6117006110495922887.post-8061950695718069342015-03-30T08:43:19.981-07:002015-03-30T08:43:19.981-07:00Hey Shilpi.

Also it is cooked by frying the pieces and then dunking them into a onion/tomato curry.<br /><br />I have never seen it being cooked like this. It looks so easy!Avahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17274222598587327676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6117006110495922887.post-48084918152558901032015-03-30T05:50:57.894-07:002015-03-30T05:50:57.894-07:00Thank you very, very much for this response.

I was a little vary of posting this recipe after all it is not what you could call a neutral dish, but then I thought let me just go ahead and post it. I am therefore so glad that you liked it.Shilpi Bosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17815522172951304358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6117006110495922887.post-35456121331997655322015-03-29T21:58:03.601-07:002015-03-29T21:58:03.601-07:00Welcome back, Shilpi! It's so good to see you ...Welcome back, Shilpi! It's so good to see you posting again. <br /><br />This is such an interesting recipe - I've never come across anything like it before. I have to admit I hadn't known that bit about how pouring in lots of water doesn't make oil splutter! I wonder why. I love the flavour of mustard oil, so I just might try this someday,,, I love experimenting with new dishes, especially if they're as easy as this one. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
