ReplyDeleteThank you for great recipe...For expectant mothers how much dried ginger, dill seeds and Kantlo should one use in the recipe???
ReplyDelete1/2 tspn ginger
ReplyDelete1/2 tspn dill seeds
1 table spoon kantlo (or to taste)
How much time does it take to cook this pak
ReplyDeletei tried this recipe in two different variation:
ReplyDeletethe first one i replaced the milk powder with milk and it came out very soft, since i liked my paks soft all i have to do is pop it in the microwave for 30 seconds and i get it piping hot. also it tasted like chocolate
the second variation i omitted the desicated coconut and used dry raisins instead. it also came out well
AND I USED MILLET FLOUR WITH BOTH RECIPES!! aint nothing possible if u dont experiment with food. i must say i invented the millet flour goondh pak
Beautiful recipe. I will try for sure
