After a soup and some breakfast under “cooking for one ” series, let’s move to an all time favourite dessert – choco lava cake . I followed Tarla Dalal’s recipe for 1 serving and quadrupled it for 4 servings .
It’s a family favourite and we used to order it regularly along with the pizza and garlic bread from dominos.
But, all 3 of them are now made at home ! How cool is that ? :).
