Madhu, thanks for your nice post. Try the paal poli when you have the time. Thanks and take care, Kugan98

Thanks Selviem for your nice post and the feed back.
I am glad that your children enjoyed the spring rolls. Try the paal poli when time permits. Thanks and take care, Kugan98

Dear Dev, the poli will be like our puris only.
It will puff up when you fry. It will not be very crisp.

You soak the fried polis in the milk for about 5 minutes only.
Then you remove them to a plate if you are not serving at once. You see the polis will become soggy.

While serving place two polis in a plate, pour the thick milk over and garnish with the nuts.

The paal poli tastes best if the milk is reduced to half while boiling. Thanks and take care, Kugan98

Gulabjamun, you can call it paal puri too.
Thats fast to try out so soon. Anyway it is a very simple sweet. Yes you can do puris with the same measurement of flour. They will turn out well. Happy trying. Take care, Kugan98

Rose, thanks for your nice feed back. It made me very happy.
Please try out other recipes too and give us the feed back.
Thanks and take care, Kugan98

Dear Aarthii, I felt very sad that your inji tayir was very spicy.
I do not know where you went wrong, maybe too much of ginger. Normally we use very young ginger for this recipe.
i always do this for every Ammavasai
I am posting the recipe again for you. I am very sorry. Kugan98
