    Re: Lasagne with mixed vegetabls & Paneer - Indian version, from scratch.

    Dear Chitra
    You have mentioned Tomato sauce and also something called topping. You have asked to spread sauce for each layer too. Which sauce should be used for each layer - tomato sauce mixture or the white sauce mixture (topping)?

    Dear rsekaran,
    Use tomato sauce to cover each layer & white sauce for topping. Sorry, if I was not clear in my instructions.
    Love,
    Chithra.

    Dear Chitra,

    you are amazing. Even if I try three or four recipes a day, I will be behind. After eating all these mouth-watering recipes, I am going to be putting on a few pounds! Never mind, I will try and walk it off!

    Dear Usha,
    Thanks a ton for your nice words.
    I just noted your post - sorry for missing out !
    Yes, I too never miss my walks - but should we not indulge as well?
    Love,
    Chithra.

    Dear Chitvish,
    My daughter Subha loves the sweet/salt biscuits which we get in Madras.I thought i would make some for her and found your recipe.I would like to know if butter can be used instead of ghee for the salt biscuits.

    Subha is well and her baby is due next week.Will let you all know as soon as I become a Paati !!!

    Dear Latha,
    First accept my congrats on "going to join" our ranks.
    Only ghee gives the right texture & not butter. Infact, dalda gives the best flaky texture!!We do not use it anymore!!
    Love,
    Chithra.
