HOW TO STORE IT?
This culinary creation maintains its freshness admirably when stored in a sealed container within the refrigerator, retaining its quality for a duration of up to five days. Furthermore, for extended preservation, the dish can be securely frozen in an airtight container for a period of up to three months. When ready to enjoy after freezing, a recommended approach is to thaw it overnight and then reheat it on a Tawa with some oil instead of a microwave. This method enhances the flavor, ensuring that the dish tastes as though it was freshly prepared, delivering a delightful culinary experience that mirrors the just-made sensation.
