My melon turned out to be not sweat today and my husband hates to eat such melons and I can’t finish alone. So I remembered days when my grand mother used to make Kharbooje ki sabji. So I was looking for a simple recipe. Thanks to your blog where I found exactly what I was looking for, will try it out.
Thanks Again.
