Hmm it looks like your blog ate my first comment (it was extremely long) so I guess I’ll just sum it up what I submitted and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog. I too am an aspiring blog writer but I’m still new to everything. Do you have any tips for novice blog writers? I’d definitely appreciate it.

I usually keep a little bit of baking powder on a plate in the kitchen, when I cook big dinners with spices and meat. This works excellently for me and the smell is gone within a few hours or overnight.

Hi Tapas, many thanks, especially from my husband who will need all the blessings he can get. 4 tiny cloves of garlic will simply not do it for 8 pieces of chicken so I would go for the fatter variety. As for those eating garlic to reduce cholesterol levels, they might as well not bother… research has in the last few years proved that garlic doesn’t actually reduce it. healthy diet and exercise are the only way forward in this dept!! All best.

Dear Mallika
In ur “palak Murg” U suggested 4 cloves of garlic. But garlic cloves come in various sizes starting from miniscule to real fat juicy ones more like rajbhogs of Kolkata and are generally taken by people trying to reduce their cholesterol levels . What do you suggest we use.
God bless u ur hubby and the 2 brats (already made and in the making)

Nice tips for getting rid of curry smell. It is specially a problem during winter. In France butchers leave half a bucket full of white vinegar overnight to get rid of smell. White vinegar works.

Mallika, hope you’ve got over you hang-over. I’ll try some of your quick and easy recipes, but I don’t see myself cooking in a shower-cap somehow.
