    Hi Rani:)
    Successful indeed, Rani. What a delicious looking meal. I adore street food but oh how nice it is to be able to prepare it at home.

    The flavors and ingredients in this dish sound so inviting. I am very intrigued by the use of the rice powder in the mixture. I guess it’s like using cornstarch to make it crispy.

    Thank you so much for sharing…
