Hi Niya, first time visitor. The kanji and payar are not only healthy and nutritious, but they bring back a lot of memories for me (with my grandparents).
The paneer masala's close-up is really tempting too :)
HI Niya, I could die for the kanji and payar! I don't make it these days because my husband is not so fond of it. My daughter too loves kanji, thanks to my parents:-) I think I will make it sometime soon. Like A&N, this post brought back a lot of good memories for me:-)
