I tasted it at one of the brunch menus at a place called Sarovar Plaza in Goregaon - Mumbai. I got hooked on to it instantaneously as I had a feeling that this was probably an easy recipe presented beautifully.
My little one loved it as well...I had to make it at home soon after. A few changes to the ingredients and I had a winning recipe on hand.
I picked up kids delight theme for this BM as cooking what my little one likes excites me the most despite the challenge on time...
