These look delicious, and I think I would have them with a glass of wine rather than a cup of tea! I am interested to what gar am flour is made from, I have to be careful with what I eat and can't eat too much wheat.
ReplyDeleteI love the way you have laid the photos out, so that just by glancing at them I would feel confident in making the recipe, really clear.
my mum in law makes it very often

I love how crunchy and fun this looks. I've never heard of it before but the recipe looks tasty.
ReplyDeleteFunnily enough one of my favorite things are grilled chicken intestines and I totally thought that's what this post was lol.
Oh yummmmm....muruku is my favourite snack! So addictive! I usually add sesame seeds and deep fried curry leaves too!
