Hi, I am Rekha Sastry, staying
in Salt Lake City, Utah with my husband Srinivas Sastry. I am
originally from Mysore, a lovely city in Karnataka, India. Right now,
I'm working as a programmer here. I love & enjoy cooking. I have a
keen interest in learning & trying out new recipes. That's the reason
I've bookmarked your site and visit it regularly.
This dish is kind of a sweet & spicy chutney.
