Here is what is going on. We are starting to wrap up our stay in Texas as we are soon moving to New Jersey. So with this last couple of weeks left, we are catching up with our friends as much as possible. Our two year stay has been wonderful. Made some awesome friends and memories that we are going to cherish. Though I'm really excited to explore yet another new place but in the same time I'm going to miss my friends here. But I want to stay positive towards life. LIFE will definitely will have something great for me.
Let's get to what's cooking today. Though it's been a while since I have posted anything with potato. As we are trying to stick to a low carb meal for last one year or so. but whenever I invite friends over, I definitely don't torture them with all my low carb, low sodium, low oil meals.
So Recently, when we had a family for dinner; I made this really easy quick Aloo tikki with loads of greens. Potato is such an amazing veggie. It pretty much goes with everythig. These Tikkis I shallow fried them but you can bake them as well.
