Sometimes our heart yearns for some unique, never-tasted-before foods to please the curious foodie inside us. We have many restaurants around us to explore the unexplored food territories, but why do we normally shy away from making something at home? When it comes to cooking, most of us are set in our ways, unwilling to try something new. It could be because we don’t have the right recipe or it could be because of those unseen ingredients that wouldn’t be there in our kitchen. But, what if you have an easy recipe requiring common ingredients that will let you rustle up a unique dish in no time? That would be perfect, right?
