Description

I was inspired by Mullai when i saw the Asparagus recipe and asked her how it would taste and she replied back saying it would taste like green beans.Was just thinking so long to experiment with Asparagus and i boldly took the decision of trying it yesterday with the combination of my favorite vegetable “Potato”and the final output became “ASPARAGUS AALU MASALA“.I liked it, My hubby liked it [we both r fussy about vegetables]i am sure u will also like it. In my personal opinion i felt that this Asparagus tasted like “Keerai Thandu”[green leaves stalk].So here we go….
