I love watching Cookery shows on Fox Traveller , NDTV Good Times and TLC , and one of my favorite show is “My Sri Lanka” with chef Peter Kuruvita . Pumpkin curry with Brinjal Roti is one of his recipe that I liked most, and I was willing to make it since long .
Finally when +Srivalli Jetti announced the theme Cooking from recipes of favorite Chef. I happily tried the recipe. We really enjoyed this sweet and sour pumpkin curry with stuffed brinjal roti. Sending this wonderful combo to BM#33 under celebrity chef theme. So let’s start the recipe . yum
