Ease of Getting ready for Deepavali in Singapore
I wanted to prepare some delicious and healthy range of sweets and snacks and living in Singapore, provides you very easy options for Deepavali. Some of my relatives in India are buying 100% of Deepavali sweets from the stores; but I am someone who is satisfied on doing things hands-on. In Singapore, there are atleast 4 brands that do a very good job on doing all the long prework for sweets and savouries- Babas, Lingas, Mahalingams etc are sourced from Malaysia and the taste is closer to home for the Tamil people. I used Babas brands and followed the instructions in the pack. Ribbon Pakoda: This had a taste of garlic and white sesame in it, but with an extra spoon of butter. This was awesome! Murukku: This has been a standard for me these days; to take some packets to pass to parents and parents in law. Nei Urundai: This was just gram flour balls. I heated ghee in a pan and added little by little to make them into balls. Well, when I posted this picture
