Your recipe of 'Kaliya' was interesting to watch especially step by step preparation and you have made it so easy for viewer to prepare this delicious dish.Typical words like Buda-aale, Doub-chamchi, mizaz added flavour to the language.Keep it up.

The Kalia recipe and the video actually were mouth watering. These videos must be posted at you tube for all to enjoy. (Kashmiri Pandit cooking) Orzuv

Dear Chandra Ji I enjoyed seeing the video. Kaliya with Tej patra gives a new flavor, while serving to the family or guests. Tej Patra are the leaves of the Darchiini. Can you please trace the origin of Kaliya and how was it introduced in KP tradition. I should thank Mr Deepak Ganju for bringing out the video part in these programs. I appreciate your efforts.

Thanks Chandraji for the Kaliya recipe, I didn't know it was so easy to make. I make it in a different style, but I prefer your recipe as it is simple,easy and nutritious. I thought the amount was for just one Kashmiri individual instead of two -- just joking.

My Mrs was excited to see this mouth watering video. Indeed this naively prepared common dish 'Kaliya' has gained importance of its simplicity in preparing and grandeur of kashmiri audio has made it more special, 'YummyKaliya'.Using Turmeric powder in the middle of preparation and TADKA at last was the delicate part of your style. These kind of video will be more useful for the people who are tired of fast-food. Keep it up.

One thing I have always liked in your recipe is that you have always attached cultural importance to Kashmiri food. We eat Kashmiri food but never paid attention to their cultural and religious significances. Your information in this regard is valuable. I applaud you and admire your recipe given in a very simple way. Even I as a batta kot am tempted to try these.

It is a remarkable effort to showcase Kashmiri Hindu recipes in such a way. I never imagined that it will be so easy. Thanks a ton.

More than the recipe , it was a treat to hear someone expalining this to you in kashmiri language. It used to be treat at the Koshur saal in Srinagar , with cooks (vazaas) ladling hot kalia on the rice in the thali. Another thing to remind you of good old kashmir. Thanks
