I have never eaten squid before. can shrimp be substituted here? recipe looks yummy and would like to try.
ReplyDeleteMeera,
ReplyDeleteYou can substitute shrimps, but they don't need much long cooking.It may make them hard, have given another recipe for prawns.pls check it. For shrimps you try this recipe by adding them when the ingredients are half cooked..ok, try and let me know.Enjoy cooking..:)

Roz,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the fb.Was thinking abt Zeb, since no news from her.. Enjoy cooking, hope to see you again.. :)
Dear Seena,
ReplyDeleteYour recipes are so good. It helps me in deciding what I should cook for dinner after I reach home. One doubt in making hommos dowe have to cook the chick peas bcos the hommos bought from shops have a raw taste. stay in touch.
Thanks and Regards,

Dear Reeja,
ReplyDeletethanks a lot for the lovely message! Glad to know that I could help you much..
yeah, I would buy that tin hummus but I usually grind again it with other ingredients..
If you make hummus at home, soak chick peas overnight, cook it with salt and water, then grind it.Raw chickpeas wouldn't use for grinding..
Hope to see you again Reeja..Good luck! :)
