#bcr - This is a very popular Gujarati snack that is served either steamed or fried. Healthy and nutritious, they are perfect for an evening tea-time snack or can be enjoyed as an appetizer with sauce or green chutney. The addition of mixed vegetables provides the required amount of iron, vitamins, and dietary fiber to this dish. I also added some flaxseeds and chia seeds to make it extra healthy. So it is a completely wholesome snack.
