Once I had food in a gujarati restaurant in Ahmedabad-Govardhan Thal and I have never ever seen a wonderful place like that. Ever since, I have always wanted to look for one in Mumbai, where I am sure there will be plenty of Gujarati restaurants. Can some one suggest a good place somewhere reasonably close to Santacruz?

As I was peeling the skin from a Batata, it began oxidizing rather quickly. It was an unappealing greenish color before I could even blink. How can I avoid this and keep it’s white flesh white?

I have a bag of Bob’s Red Mill chickpea flour. How can I use this in my kitchen? I bought it because I thought it sounded interesting. P.S. I do not use white flour or cornstarch.

My indian neighbour used to eat them. I am pretty sure they are made of chickpeas but it’s been a couple of decades now and I don’t remember.
