My little angel is keeping me busy all day. I am totally loving the new mom works and feel. She is getting more naughtier as days pass by and i am so excited to see her little actions..I am getting many mails and wishes from my viewers, thank you guys. Many have been asking about the name of my lil princess. We are still insearch and deciding it, i will update you once i am done with it.
Now coming to todays recipe. This recipe is inspired from the bolognese sauce recipe. I modified the recipe a lot and made it to my taste. I always wanted to make a chicken keema pasta and finally i made it. I used chicken mince, but you could use lamb of beef as you like. Hope you will try it and let me know how it turned out for you.
