Hi!
I made it & it turned out great!
Was out of besan so used roasted cornflour, but still worked.
Any replacement for gram flour??
@Yasubra Muthalaganu can use wheat flour, it will give diff taste
Aarthi, can we skip baking soda?
@Anonymousu can skip it and use baking powder..If u skip it completely then it will be little dense
I tried this recipe and it came out very well. Thank you for sharing.
