Gosht handi mein banaya aur itna naram bana ke sabko heran kar diya. Mitti ka touch food ko natural aur tasty banata hai. Bas size thoda chhota hai, agar bara hota to family cooking ke liye aur zyada useful hota.

Is handi mein biryani banayi aur chawal fluffy aur khushbudaar nikle. Slow cooking ka asar clearly mehsoos hota hai. Ghar walon ne taste ki bohot tareef ki. Sirf cooking thodi slow hoti hai lekin result worth it hai.

Handi se pehli dafa sabzi banayi aur honestly taste bilkul purane zamane jaisa laga. Khana evenly cook hota hai aur nutrients bhi barkarar rehte hain. Sirf dhyaan ye dena parta hai ke direct thandi surface par na rakhein warna crack ka dar rehta hai.

Handi mein daal aur nihari banayi, taste zabardast tha aur mitti ki khushboo alag hi maza deti hai. Glazed surface ki wajah se saaf karna bohot easy tha. Bas ye handi thodi heavy hai aur stove par uthana mushkil hota hai
