Announcing Serve It Series - Serve It - Boiled



This month's theme for Serve It series is Serve It - Boiled. We just had to reserve this theme for October. With the onset of monsoons we all would like something steaming hot for a meal. Starting with your morning cup of joe, followed by an awesome curry with rice/roti and ending the day with a warm bowl of soup for dinner would be so comforting and satisfying. That is the reason for this
