thats a mouth watering recipe. well i’m looking for the pachchadi in which the dosakai is also blended and you will not find any pieces of it. can you post that kind of recipe too!!! i guess there we use more of chana dal which infact gives the actual taste. i used to stay in vijayawada, were i tasted these kinda dishes. so, can you please bring those sweet days back by posting the new recipe? thank you.
