Fridays have become snacks making days as my husband would be at home and he will help me with it. I wish to have some snacks to munch on in-between for no reason and also with our tea or coffee. The snacks from shops are not up to my liking and also quite costly. So I opt to prepare the snacks at my home itself. The sweet snacks which I prepare during the weekend will not survive for more than 2 days However, the spicy ones will go for a long run. Last 2 weeks I tried pottukadalai murukku the taste was so good but the murukku ended as Karasev. I don’t know where I am going wrong. Once it turns out perfect I will make a post on it. Another snack which I am good at making is sev or besan sev. I was planning to make it for a long time so that I can use it while making chaat. I used 2 cups of gram flour for making the sev. One portion of the sev I used for making the mixture recipe and has stored the other portion in an airtight container so that I can use it while making chaat. The mixture too came out so well. Next time I will post the recipe of that too.
Lets see how to make this recipe.
