    Dear friend, I am married to a Gujarati and you don't know how proud I feel when I was appreciated by my wife for this Gujarati dish for it's taste only.

    Khandvi was super quick to make as it does not require too many ingredients. Both us loved the taste, which mainly comes with the buttermilk. What I felt bad about was it did not roll up, and started to break. After deep analysis I got to know the reasons. Next attempt I'm sure to roll up Khandvi all the way into mouth.
