On a whim I mentioned I wanted to have Litti, at a friends (Daniel and Noopur) place,
They no longer live with his parents, yes I am fond of their parents, and parents being parents went all out to make it happen. Thank u dear uncle and aunt. Takes a big heart to do it no doubt and am glad such people exist to make out days better.
Litti is a made by making a paste of ground chana+ lasun+ adrak + dhanya+ ajwine+ nimbu, which is inserted inside a layer of ground wheat, and roasted over slow fire (the fire has to be made by burning cow dung dried in sun.
Most of this is a hassle to get in a city, but then when did such little details stop folks who are set on making a son happy, falter. Lucky we sure are.
