Guest Post -2 : Spicy Sundal made with ChickPeas
Couple of weeks back ,we had a potluck tea party home . Each of us had cooked a snack ideal for the evening..But tea party went on and the snacks made up for the heavy dinner. Menu was Spicy Maggie , Paneer Tikka , Spicy sundal & Fruit Kheer . Offocurse we had it with tea.. Coz it was Tea Party!!
My dear friend Anu had made this Sundal soo beautifully with such simple ingredients that I couldnt stop myself from asking her to write for me.... Luckily I did manage to get some nice clicks...
Over to Anu for the rest of the recipe .
