hmmm, it looks good chini, even i am not that kind who like to cook but i will give it a try later. at least to see the taste of mixing ginger with onion :P . i like mixing different things and get unique taste. but i don't think i have all the ingredients for example, turmeric, so can replace it with another thing?

 

and thank you for sharing.
