ReplyDeleteNava, I don't think think your passion will dry up. I guess some days (to take the words from a song) are diamonds and some days are stones! But I love going through your pictures and your recipes. If I had a hard day at work I doubt I'd be even inspired to post!!
ReplyDeleteThis dish looks mouth-watering!:)
I like this type of dishes. Because normally they gives a mixture of taste! Especially when it gives a spicy kick
ReplyDeletethis looks so colorful... i agree to u on meetings... sometimes, i prefer to call it as chair-warming sessions!!!
ReplyDeletei'm drooling over this delicious Thai fish,my mouth watering right now :) looks so delicious and your pictures tell them all "YUMMYLICIOUS" weldone Nava, I can wait to cook this fish recipe :)
ReplyDeleteHi Nava, your fish look extremely good, I need extra rice please.:)
ReplyDeleteVery flavorful, I can practically smell the scent from here. LOL
Nice pictures.
Have a great week ahead. Regards.
Hey Nava, your fish is always good after a tiring meeting. I am hungry for some thai food now. the fish looks so delicious with the sauce poured in.
ReplyDeleteOh My, looks gourmet styled and cooked to perfection. I love the herbs all over the saucy fish!! Nice clicks! Mackerel = full of omega 3! Your picture makes me wanna become non-vegetarian for sure and kinda kicks in the thought of what all I'm missing!!
ReplyDeleteAnd abt meetings!! Shucks, not a single one is productive, waste of time! I would rather prefer a stand-up meeting with the immediate team for 5 minutes than sitting in a conference room an yapping about unwanted problems and risks which we are not facing at all, they call it forecast, Phew - I think it is the same everywhere around the world! We just have to get on with it or try to switch! I know, easy to say but very hard in reality!! Yet another day in the rising...
I could feel the flavor and the crispiness of the fish.lovely clicks.
ReplyDeleteLove that Thai fish and the half moon plate :)
ReplyDeleteLovely dish, fish is a delicious and healthy meal, I like the vegetables they add great color! Makes it come alive:)
