India’s Parsi Breakfast usually consists of Sweet Ravo (Semolina) – choc-a-bloc with dry fruits) which is served with yogurt and enjoyed by young and old alike.
Desserts too are not behind in terms of variety, the most easy to make being Falooda. It is a sweet milk drink made from vermicelli and flavored with rose essence. Lagan-nu-custard is a favorite on this occasion.

Need advice. Can yeast be added to make bhakhra puff up
Loading...
Yes, yeast can be used to puff up bhakhras. I have experimented and the bhakras do taste different with a yeasty flavor. Add some cardamon, almonds to offset. Be careful of the amount of yeast, do not use more than needed or you may get bread like bhakhras.
Maybe our other expert members can help out with some advice – please let us know.
