Description

My son in law Riyaz loves this pudding . This is one dish he asks me to prepare every visit without fail . I got the recipe from my Aunt Thasneem ( moms youngest sister ) . She took note of it from the magazine femina . This was about nine years back . From then till now every time I make it , I am always showered with loads of compliments and it has become a regular house hold menu at home .
