sweet and tasty bites! it is really very healthy as it has 3 flours...those who do not like soya flour or have never tasted soya flour please do not worry because these nutritious bites are very good. soya flour does not impart any unusual flavour, however you can add little cardamon powder (elaichi) for flavour.
