Diwali is on its way and I hope all of you are getting for a pompous celebration. Diwali is to our family is almost a 10-day long event I would say. Grandmom and mom begin all sweet and savoury preparations and we will begin relishing them. Relatives visit and family gettogether are add-ons.
The below recipe is from amma specially made for my son. She has been doing this since he was 1 year. It is a protein-rich snack when compared to other murukkus. Most murukkus basic ingredient would be rice but in this recipe, it is protein-rich yellow moong dhal. Check out the recipe below and try once for your babies above 6 months(skip salt).
