Khandvi is
Gujarati delicacy made using Gram Flour/Chickpea Powder and flavoured with
tempering of pungent mustard, spicy green chillies, coconut and aromatic
coriander leaves. After staying in Gujarat for 5 years, I always thought that
it is very difficult to make Khandvi. Then one day while browsing for recipes I came
across Microwave Khandvi and I could no more resist the
temptation. The ingredients listed and the method sounded simple enough to give
it a go. I gathered all the courage and was very happy with the results. Do try
this Indian Savoury Swiss Rolls.
