Description

Murg Malai Kebab.My kids love this kebab .It was my favourite to as a kid.I remember every vacation we (my brother and myself)were taken to Bangalore for a holiday.Well it was a holiday for us but it was always a business trip were my parents used to combine both together to keep us entertained enough. The entire day they will be out busy with work and every night it was our choice to select a restaurant for dinner. There was a small take away restaurant near woodlands hotel in Bangalore which served all types of Tandoori items. I used to love the murg malai kebabs there.It used to just melt away in our mouths. I didn’t know the name of the kebab then but i used to call it Vella (white)kebab.My kids also till date call this as Vella Kebab.Funny isn’t it.
