Hi all
This is my first ever post in this world of bloggers!! I'm Hasna from a small part of UAE ;Umm Al Quwain.Thanks to Shabeena; (shabscuisine.blogspot.com) who ve been a wonderful friend since schooldays; cos of whom i ve thought of starting a blog; Thought of sharing some wonderful recipes; mostly my Mom's who ve got such a variety of recipe collections from almost all parts of world ;mostly Asian!! Her name is Khadeeja & this blog s named after her (Kachu-her petname).

So while thinking of recipes to be started with, Methi Chicken came to my mind which s absolutely delicious & creamy.
