Ukad/ Ragi and Rice Flour Ukad

        In this webbed world we may have many virtual friends but no real human contact. I have lived in the same town, and same locality for the last 5 years but never made any real friends. Neighbors, colleagues and a few acquaintances, of course I had them. But I believe they are temporary contacts. But last year was amazing in terms of social circle. First I met a lady in the park I take my daughter to. We connected quickly. Now I believe we may have a chance at world record for chatting:-). She introduced me to a group of friends who meet every month, share recipes, play games, go on short picnics..... and now I am a part of that group. Another special friend that I made last year and who is part of that group is the mind behind this recipe. She is my daughters friend as well as her grand mother before being my friend :-) . We share the same first name. After she learnt about my resolution of 200 recipes in 365 days, she enthusiastically shared/and continues to share recipes with me. This recipe is her creation. We loved it and I have made it several times before it has found its respectful place here. Thanks Kaku! This post is for you and for your enthusiasm and encouragement:-)
