One thing I miss the most is my mom cooked food and specially her chicken dish! It’s not that she would add a lot of flavor or marinate for hours
yet it would be like something you never tasted before. This is not my Mom’s recipe , I don’t even give a try to that. I mean to say why to spoil the fun of waiting for months just to hear that music in your mouth đ
