This is a great day for my blog. Bacause this is my 100th post!!.

I would love to publish this as a book at some point of time in my life.If possible, I will open a restaurant where in one can eat all possible Konkani food.

Through my blog I want to bring the awareness about konkani(mainly North and South Kanara which are in the Coastal side of Karnataka) food to outside world.

The most important thing I would like to improve about my blog is, the quality of pictures. I feel bad about the terrible looking pictures of the delicious recipes. Even after trying constantly to improve, I had a very little or no success in this matter.

Well….my today’s post is not included under konkani traditional food. I had decided to share a “soup recipe” every Monday, So I am posting this.

Ingredients: Cabbage (Shredded) 1 cup Butter 1 tbl spn Ginger-garlic paste ½ tea spn Milk ½ cup Pepper ½ tea spn Salt

Method: Heat butter and fry shredded cabbage and ginger-garlic paste for 4-5 minutes. Grind the cabbage till you get a smooth mixture. Heat the mixture with milk. Let it boil for 2-3 minutes. Add salt and pepper. Garnish with butter and serve hot.
