Sunday for me is a day spent with family having no plans. A lazy morning and then a royal lunch.
Today I made my husband’s favorite Masala Puri and Bhaji.
A wonderful combination, Puri Bhaji is made in almost every Indian home and is a favorite among all. It is best served with pickle and I love to serve it with my favorite roughly cut salad.
So, read the recipe here and make it for your next Sunday lunch!
