I am posting almost after a month,definitely feeling good as I am posting this recipe from a different country a midst different people. All my life I have stayed in different parts of India,for the first time I have relocated to a different country with my family, away from my parents and friends. Therefore I was taking a break from cooking and was devoting all my time for the little one who is trying her best to adjust in a new environment and making efforts every day to make new friends.
Singapore has welcomed us with open arm and we are also falling in love with the country. On our first outing we went to a food court (Kopittam) of a nearby mall and I was glad to notice that they have a separate section which serve only Indian Cuisine. There was literally everything Indian on that floor, only couple of dishes names got changed like Paratha became Pratha in Singapore and Dosa is known as Thosai,but they taste really good. From a mighty list of Parathas I decided to go for egg pratha which taste exactly like Mughlai Paratha (a popular paratha in Kolkata) and it was served with a delicious bowl of chicken curry.
My journey with Singapore and its food life has just started and we have a long way to go,I will keep sharing my experiences with you all and for now I am sharing the recipe of Veg spring roll,which I made last weekend.
Now Spring rolls wraps are easily available in the market but I decided to make them at home. This recipe is an adaptation of Dassana's recipe of spring roll, who shares her recipe in vegrecipesofindia.com,I have twisted the recipe according to my convenience and you can do the same.
