Pyaz Ka Salan Recipe - Baby Onion Salan Recipe

Spread the Joy!

My Mirchi ka Salan is such a family favourite, so i use the same salan base and add different vegetables in them and make different salan recipe. This is my third recipe, pyaz ka salan. Delicious and yummy recipe.

This is made with small baby onion, it gives nice flavour and taste to the whole salan. The main thing about any salan is you have to cook till oil floats on top. It makes it look more appealing and tasty.

Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you..
