While they say that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, we feel that dinner is equally important too. After all the back and forth the entire day, one wants to relax and enjoy the night. Food is an important factor in making or breaking the mood. If you know that there is something delicious being prepared at home for dinner, you automatically feel energized and happy the entire day. Moreover, after a hearty meal at night, is there any doubt how your sleep would be? Peaceful and happy too.
Usually, the dinner fare at my place comprises of a dry subzi along with a dal and some salad. However, on days when there is some special occasion, I usually start feeling hungry way before dinner time. And that generally happens when I know that my mother is cooking chicken. The Indian land is often associated with curries around the world. Well, why shouldn’t it when it is actually our speciality. Any vegetable or meat once cooked in a gravy, attains a distinct flavour and aroma. That’s the charm of curries.
