DeleteThat's a delicious looking sheera. Didn't know it was so easy to prepare. My grandmother use to make it sometimes for Ekadashi but never learnt the recipe from her.
ReplyDeleteDo try it Mayuri
DeleteYummy dessert and something new to try. Will this work on the Red Shakarkandi we get here, as they are a bit more on the sweeter side.
