Methi Machli – Fish with Fenugreek Sauce

Would you believe me if I told you that until the age of 19, I didn’t eat things that were not from the Kashmiri Cuisine? And if I ever did, I ended up not liking them.

I never paid much attention to it in the past. It was after all just a made up day to Celebrate Moms and I did not need a particular day to do that.
