Winters. The very mention of this season brings a magnitude of things to one's mind - woolens,tweeds,boots and FOOD! The very mention of FOOD catches my attention. There is a section a food items, common in households across India, that is made only in winters, namely-goond ka ladoos, gur chakki, besan ladoos and last but not the least til ladoos. Now til is a very versatile ingredient apart from being very healthy. So I decided to give the traditional til ka ladoos a miss this season and try something new. The result was an amazing, healthy snack TIL CRACKERS!
