The much anticipated 'Mega Marathon' started on April 1st 2014..Any regular follower of my blog will know that we ,a group of bloggers' get together each week and blog on a thematic basis, taking up challenging ones to make it all the more interesting. This event is spear headed by dear Srivalli of Cooking 4 all seasons & Spicing Your Life.
In the past years, we have done Mega Marathons, in addition to the regular 3 days a week mini marathons. This time we did a 'Regional' theme for the mega marathon where 29 bloggers got together and cooked and posted a dish(es) from 30 Indian States.
We have been thinking over this theme, pouring in our ideas and preparing for this like our life depended on it! It was great fun exploring and experimenting with each regional cuisine.
While researching for recipes and writing the posts for each state, I learnt so much about each state , culture and cuisine. It once again amazed me to think what a diverse land our country is!
Here is the recap of the dishes that I made for this series....
