Video: Eggless Banana Pie Recipe

First of all, it’s been a reaallly long time since I posted anything here. My new job has kept me from doing anything on the blog and the website. But a ‘new’ and ‘improved’ Indian food website is on the works and I’m super excited to show it all to ya :-)

Alright, here is a video that I found on VideoJug.Com. The author of the video calls it Banoffee Pie though the recipe uses Bananas and chocolates. Nevertheless the final product looks extremely tempting to be devoured in one-go. And it doesn’t use any eggs.

Christmas is just a week away and a holiday mood is taking over. India too is gearing up for Christmas and a New year weekend.
