17 February, 2018
So this recipe was first attempted by me when my mom was making karela/ bitter gourd and my younger brother refused to eat it. Crispy honey chili veggies can make any boring vegetable into a tasty snacky affair. Want to try something new or your kids are not eating enough veggies then try crispy honey chili veggies and just enjoy!
