deep

Aarthi
@deepu can use 1/2 cup of milk which is mixed with a tsp of cornflour

Dear Aarthi!!!! It's not #shahi_zeera........ It's #SIYAAH_ZEERA....... Cause...... #siyah and #zeera both are Persian words...... And "siyah" means "black"..... So it's black zeera, means "syah zeera"....... Hope you won't mind it, 😍😍😍 love you a lot dear
