Description

I have a habit of exploring and tasting new recipes . Any restaurant I go to I make it a point to order what ever is new in their menu . Once On a holiday to ooty , we were recommended to a new place called Kings cliff by a friend for lunch . (Its one among the best restaurents in my best liked eat outs ) I got to see lasagna on their menu and ordered for myself . I was been laughed at by all my cousins , hubby n kids . Gosh the lasagna was so very delicious that I got just a signal spoon for myself . My kids kept talking about lasagna after that . I got this recipe from the net but have made changes according to the Indian taste buds .
