The name may look different but its  in hindi that’s it.

The theme for the party is steamed snacks.. when I thought of making the snack this recipe came across which I have noted down in my recipe book long before and tried at once..we had nice time in party with people posting lot of steamed snacks…with a cup chai. you can checkout the event page @ online tea party in jorenQ

This would be an easy snack and healthy too as no frying required and can be prepared easily with less ingredients.You can also make a vegetarian version by adding planner I stead of chicken .make paneer balls and roll in rice and steam.
