My mom makes yummy masala rice flour balls. Came across Pasta sundal in a cookery show today when I was reminded of mom’s recipe. This is a variation of her recipe with pasta. Tasted yummy. Why always italian when our south indian style tastes equally good!! Try it for yourself and you will love it 🙂
