Well, to really be fair to my hubby though, he's in a kitchen all day so the last thing he wants to do at home is any kitchen duties.



Sanju, if you come back, I really would like the recipe for whatever it is you are wanting to make with those grated carrots.

No ,not yet

no time to go to the corner Migros or Coop to buy one ?

And she won?!

Try this, hope this will work.

I do not know, is this will be a proper place to share the recipe,But if you are really interested then have a look on this...(I apologize, if I have posted it at wrong place)

Great recipe - I will do it as soon as I'm in the mood for some carrots. Maybe it also works with pumpkin.

I suggest the good thing about this grater, wife and money discussion, is this recipe.

Personally I can't really understand the fuss for CHF 7-9.-. All the ingredients will probably cost about 7-9.

Not to speak about energy for cooking.

I have not tried yet with pumpkin.... but if you are going to try it .. pls let me know.. I can have another .... sweet dish recipe

It does work with Pumpkin too, its called "Paithay ka Halwa"

You can also add some rice to the carrots too.

No arguments!

The grater's from Migros are the best. I used to get requests for these from my U.S. friends/clients as well as there 1.90 peelers(Swiss invention) and the short and long pairing knives.
