Description

Ragi tacos , a dish that Nilofer had got for the recipe swap get together for the first anniversary of sauté , fry n bake . First let me introduce nifoler , who is my hubby’s niece . who , i have seen from a kid blooming into a beautiful girl . she was one among the first to confirm her participation in the recipe swap with so much enthusiasm and it was a joy to have her as well . The tacos looked colourful , vibrant and showed me a new way to use our local produce “ragi ” with imagination . The best part of this dish being its cooked using our traditional methods , but styled to look contemporary and of international standards . I just got a tiny bite from my hubby’s plate as by the time I could start my lunch the ragi tacos were wiped out clean . Nilofer was a bit worried as she had fried the ragi tacos even before she came for the recipe swap in the morning by 11 , in spite of her worries they were vanished in minutes . Make this for a mid week dinner , adding a style affair than the usual like . We ladies not only got to taste and get free recipes that day … ( Recipe swap ) but with an added bonus of friends to socialise was introduced for keeps in style .
