Looks incredible! Thanks for the details.
What a great recipe! Thanks for sharing.
Great recipe! I’m eager to try it.
This is exactly what I was looking for!
Gujarati Khandvi never garnished with Pomegranate seeds.. it is garnished with fresh grated coconut and coriander leaves.. and in tempering curry leaves along with mustard seed is must.. green chili and ginger paste is mixed in the batter.. Top of all it should be thinner as possible.. No hard feelings please..
Seriously Yummy…will definitely try
I know I can never make it like this one 🙁 because it looks to yumm and tempting. Just imagining the taste 🙂
