Hi dear,
It’s great to see a nostalgic blog from 06 being updated till last year… I have recently started loving the taste of Andhra culture and food, but instead of paying so much at restaurants, I’ve decided to try cooking Andhra food on my own. I see that your blog has a mix of recipes from all over India and beyond, so can you recommend me any beginner chicken (dry) dishes to start trying to cook? I think kodi vepudu is definitely a must, what else? And if there are any boneless recipes that will be great. Even boneless fish!!! Do recommend me if you are free and active on this page. Thanks for your effort!
