Curry/subji using Pineapple and POPCORN !!??
Yes you read/heard it right.
A very rare kind of a subji, using popcorn and pineapple which my both the sons relish happily whenever made. This is one such dish/recipe which though I prepare often at my place and is also everyone’s favorite, but did not/could not click and never posted it here on my blog. But today I could do so and very happily sharing the recipe with you all. I learnt this recipe very very long ago, when my kids were too young and were very fond of popcorn and they were very much surprised when the first time I made this and enjoyed well relishing it too. It goes well with any kind of rotis, chapati or poori, phulka etc etc.
