#flavour3 - This is a very popular Gujarati snack where fenugreek leaves are mixed with gram flour and other seasonings to be deep fried. A great tea-time snack, this delicacy can be found in all eateries. They are crisp on the outside and soft and spongy from inside. They can also be relished as appetizers with green chutney.
