Thank god  my lil one didn’t get scared for all those crackers..Even i got little scared by hearing those atom bombs, but she gave a very little reaction like opening her eyes ones and then going back to sleep. It is such a relief.

Now coming back to todays recipe, it is again my mom’s avial recipe. She makes avial with all kinds of veggies and i should tell ya, it taste divine. I have quite a variety of avial in this blog like Drumstick Avial, Mixed Vegetable Avial, Raw Mango Avial, Beans Potato Avial, & Malabar Avial. If you are a non veg eater, i have avials for you too. Check out my Anchovies Avial & Egg Avial.So try this avial and let me know how it turns out.
