Kumbalakayi Sandige

In today’s blog, I am going to share the recipe for Kumbalakayi sandige. In India, we need some papads and Sandiges along with our rice meals. During summer holidays or sunny days, my mom used to prepare a variety of sandige and papads. Me and my cousins would be very excited to help our mothers in preparing papads. Papads and Sandiges can be prepared and stored for years. I have learned many Papad n sandige recipes from my mom. Kumbalakyi sandige is one of my favorites. Now, let’s jump into the recipe.
