Tomato Bath

I hope you all had a fantastic time celebrating Ganesh Chaturthi. Here's my monthly post of August 2017. 

I was talking to my aunt last week and was telling her how lazy I was feeling to cook. She then suggested making this super quick recipe based out of tomato and rice. If you are a bachelor, you will love this recipe for you would want to finish cooking in one go. I do not have step by step pictures. But, I have tried to keep the recipe simple and crisp.
