Hi Chitvish, I will make haste & try the pizza asap.Would love to have mashed potatoes & diet au gratin on board soon. :2thumbsup: Love & Regards, Kate.
Dear Chithra, thanks for posting the diet pizza, it looks absolutely heavenly. The problem of living in Ambattur is that things like fresh yeast are nor available. I shall get it when I go Anna Nagar and try it. And Sunday being my mil's thevasam, I shall have to try it later only. But it sure is tempting.
Dear Varloo, Buy fresh yeast from Nilgiris & store in freezer. After 2 mths, throw it away & buy fresh stock. It is not only tempting, but is very tasty ! Love, Chithra.
