Share your mother's recipes with us

What is the best thing you learned to cook from your mother? Tell us!

When was the last time you boasted about your 'maa ke haath ka khana' and insisted the food she made was the best in the world?

With Mother's Day around the corner (May 8), we're asking you, dear readers, to share that special recipe you learnt from your mother.

Whether it is the humble omelette, aloo paratha or bhendi masala, do share the recipe and tell us your experience about learning how to make it.

Send the recipes of your mom's best preparations to getahead@rediff.co.in along with your NAME, AGE and the place where you LIVE. We'll publish the most interesting ones on Rediff.com and India Abroad.

Do include a few lines about why you love your mother's cooking and what makes it so special. Remember to mention your mother's name. And don't forget to send a photograph of yourself with your mother. We'll publish it along with the recipe.
