"Maitri" - a friendship chain

[caption id="attachment_458" align="aligncenter" width="432" caption="Maitri"][/caption]

As I was blog  hopping last day, I came across this lovely blog -  "Mharo Rajasthan's Recipes" authored by Priya. It was there that I learned about this initiative called "Maitri".

Maitri is a "friendship chain" initiated by Priya Mithrawal ( Mharo Rajasthan's Recipes )  & Reshmi Pillai ( Rasoi ). The basic idea behind this initiative is to make a lot of friends who are food bloggers and also to do this with an element of fun. :)
This is what you do for Maitri:

  • Interested bloggers will be matched with two other bloggers.

  • Each of these bloggers will send one another a mystery ingredient.

  • Using this mystery ingredient us bloggers will cook a dish and share it in respective blogs.



This is the basic idea behind Maitri. Aint this fun friends? :D I am so excited!! I am yet to get a match (buddy). Once matched I shall post the dish cooked using the mystery ingredient.
To get a hang of this event and know more details, do go through Priya and Reshmi's blogs.
