I just love them and I am happy to finally find their recipe! In Madagascar, they are especially popular on the Western and the Southern Cost where many Indo-pakistani live. I think that those Indo-pakistani people have the same origin as the ones who settled on the African Western Coast and other parts of the Indian Ocean. That's why the recipes, particularly the Khodja recipes on your site are the same as those I know.<BR/><BR/>Many recipes remind me of the dishes I often used to eat as a child. When asking the Indian families about them, I would never get any answer because they were such family secrets! Afterwards I have searched them on Indian food websites but the ones I found were not exactly the same as those I know. I am really happy to find them now. <BR/><BR/>Thanks a lot for sharing those treasures!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11349097952531320049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1926976925960555345.post-23949607268871157812007-11-07T16:06:00.000+00:002007-11-07T16:06:00.000+00:00They really look yum!
