Today’s post is a healthy paratha, which is made with radish. I used to make this paratha few years back (though not in the same way), but stopped making it when aloo paratha started taking preference over other parathas. Recently, I got a request from a reader asking for recipes with radish. Though I gave the suggestion as radish paratha, but she was worried about the raw smell of radish.

Rice with sambar, upperi or poriyal, pappad, pickle, curd and rasam is considered to

Being a Sindhi I have a strong affinity to some Sindhi delicacies. Sindhi kadhi, tomato kadhi, fried potato-capsicum, potato-okra, seal phulko, and the quintessential Sindhi Papad are the things I can never say no to.

The main ingredients, veggies or meats, are cooked in spicy gravy, which is then combined with rice in
