The most popular & well known farsan/snacks/breakfast dishes from the western part of our country- Gujarat...

Well, my long association with the very state/land, makes me immensely nostalgic & I do visit the city Vadodara at least 2 times every year (pre-pandemic though) for somewhat my own connect with the region & its people & needless to mention- it’s popular variety of cuisines

I still have my very own reasons to visit the place: My own house therein

    Out of each ball make an elongated shape by placing it on a flat & smooth surface (it’d slightly stick to your hand/palm, if you’re following the traditional method of doing it the same way), need to clean your hands every time & start on with the next one

    Placing it over the flat, smooth & clean surface- Press it gently with the soft fleshy portion of your palm underneath the wrist & from the bottom edge to the upwards, press it gently yet firmly without stopping in between by forming the shape as is seen in the pics (refer to the pics carefully) & then, with the help of a very thin & flat knife take it out off the surface & dip it in the warm oil immediately

A hardcore Bong- that has a tremendous wanderlust in her blood as well as that much passion for cooking new ideas and recipes & also, camouflaging certain recipes across the globe-Of course, all that maintains its heritage and cultures in its looks and taste both yet caters to the day’s call/requirement to be health conscious but a great foodie that’s innate in her genes and tries to satiate the crowd- Be ANY, with all that 😊💁🏻‍♀️👍🏻
