I agree with you Saks .. I have felt the same over the recent times , people act clever they take all my recipes and never give anything back … so now i have become really careful in giving them out too ..
And you would still give them the recipe? why oh why oh why … I say you tell them to add anardana powder four tablespoons in the dish that will cure their aankh and moo ka expression ..
I usually end up saying sarcastically, oh you looked as if you wern’t enjoying it, i make them ask a few times before i give it out, and then everybody makes the same dish in every event/dawat, that i always say aloud, I hate giving my recipes to everybody they just kill it
I used to do 2....but now only with close friends that also share with me
My biggest pet peeve was.... So u take my recipe..... Make the dish..... Do a dawat... And when ppl compliment u on the dish, u have the audacity to lie IN my presence that its ure creation ....Wth?! This happened quite a few times with one friend of mine... Now i dont share any recipes with her...
Ive never had trouble telling ppl where i got the recipe from or making sure ppl compliment the real genius behind the dish if they are also present at the dawat.
