Introduction
When you go to Farmer's Market, and you see slender looking veges, not knowing what exactly it is; and even if you know, how would you make a dish out of it?!! That was my first reaction when I first saw Chives. Many people have their own recipe too. Nevertheless, I learnt this curry from my mom and sharing it to you. We love it and hope you like it too!
