Urad dhal kali / balls

This is my 200th post. I started this blog without any idea of what is blog. Slowly learned myself little by little. Even now am not a good blogger. I dont have time to cncentrate on it more. Home, office, home, in between Fb, food group, like this life running soo busy. Due to my passion towards cooking I able to be active in my food group and try different verieties whenever I have time. But i mostly never have time to update my blog. Many posts I have posted in my facebook food groups not yet updated here. The main aim of creating this blog is to store all the recipes i learned from mom, relatives, friends, cook books, internet, everything I want to keep it in one place for my future reference, so i thought blog is best way to do it. I never counted my posts. I never know when I crossed my 100th post, since I dont know how to see the numbers :-).  Yesterday when I tried to edit my recipe in blog from browser that time only i saw that I have reached 198th post. Really I wondered how did i find time to upload this much. Atleast in future i will try to upload all recipes am trying. Thanks to all who are encouraging me to postmore recipes,

Being 200th post i wanted to try some sweet that too some traditional recipe. I didnt do any special preprarations. Just today morning checked items in kitchen, being month end almost all important items are missing in kitchen shelf. Then only decided to post recipe for urad dhal kali which is havng so many healthy nutrients in it.
