Hello Loleta
When try to of do recipes that carry yogurt, to the take it to the frying pan is me short. What do I do wrong?
Your dessert and your Indian recipes are my favorite. I love that we enseñases do coconut naan.
Thanks
Hello Gely, what recipe in particular? You would need to tell me more to find out what's wrong. Tell me and I try to help. BMe said it's the naan of coconut. that large and thanks for being here
It is in this recipe. Not it is because I have missed fewer tandoori, or for letting too much yogurt on chicken, but to throw it in the Pan, the yogurt since it cracked, guess that's that it is cut. Can be that was because no was Greek? Or because to be eco-friendly?
Thanks
Hello Gely, if yogurt is cut nothing happens, but not it should be noted, since passing the chicken in the frying pan, all yogurt is not added. Only the little that is left attached to the chicken. So when then do the sauce and put the chicken, not noticed anything yogurt. Of all modes itself has that see that not is yogurt Greek because not have so much fat and not melt equal. A hug and proof again that it is rich rico. A hug and thank you very much for being here with me as always :)
Many thanks Loleta. I missed not all yogurt but almost. I'll be back to try and with Greek yoghurt...
A hug.

Hi Elena, fenugreek is a plant widely used in Indian cuisine, and Sri Lanka. As well indicates not passes nothing if it is not used, although it gives a characteristic aroma. If any time pass by a store of power Asian, asks if have. They tend to sell in sheets, you lasts a lifetime and it is very cheap. Sure that's a discovery for you as it was for my. Thank you for writing and for being here with me. A big kiss
Hello Loleta, could you tell how to do the rice accompaniment?

Hello Martha, I then do 230 g of rice basmati and 400 ml of water. Sauté the rice in a tablespoon of oil seeds. Add the water. When it is boiling, cover and got the fire to a minimum. Leave 10-12 minuitos. Ready. Anything you tell me kisses
Hello, what add is cilantro or parsley?
Do you have the recipe for the two rice dishes in the photo? White and yellow?
Hello Rolo, add cilantro (I have it since not is how it had happened to me, so thanks for telling it to me). I just drop that I have posted the recipe for the rice and wonder a lot but it is so. White rice is basmati rice. To boil it just to wash it very well, until water you fall transparent. Then put it to Cook: on the one hand of rice 1 part and a quart of water. Leave it to boil five minutes past the time covers it and turn off the fire. You let it stand for 15 minutes and nothing else. The other is to see if I focus and take it. A hug and thanks for writing
