One Marwari thing that I never had an appreciation for, growing up, was Thandaai.... but now, after all these years.. I wonder if, just like my late-in-life appreciation for all stinky things like Palak and brussel sprouts, my taste buds might finally be ready for Thandaai.. could you please post the recipe?
Hi maand
