processor or blender and process until smooth and well grinded. Once blended,

transfer to a serving dish and serve. If not used immediately, it can be stored

Dear Jbird Tweety,

This sounds like a delicious recipe but before I try it I'd like to confirm the

amount of asofoetida.

I have never used more than a pinch of asofoetida before.Are there different

types as 2 teaspoons seem rather a lot!!

I use a powder.

Regards

Helen
