Cabbage Paratha

Other than the weather taking a nasty turn at the start of this week and sweating us out to the core, this week has been pretty much ideal. With the weekend at our feet and so much planned,and lots and lots of food, exciting new projects, and fun. 2015 seems to be bringing the goods so far, and it's exciting.

And again I have been on  a refrigerator cleaning spree, so using up all the stocks that have been waiting for attention. This way new dishes are getting tried and my blog space remains lively. Quite glad with the outcome.

Overall, life is moving at a cool phase as of now and the rest of the week is going to be spent with my head down, working, blogging and plotting- so much to do.
 
It was the turn of cabbage this time to cheer us up and it did not fail. I made it like a stuffing for my dinner bread and quite an exciting outcome was delivered. Very easy, still I thought to pen it down here.
