It is an easy to make breakfast or a snack item originated from Maharashtra. I have learned this from my neighbor who introduced this dish to me. I love this dish a lot because of the taste and texture of this dish. In one spoon you can taste the chewy sago seeds, soft potoatoes and the crunchy peanuts and the slight sourness from lemon. Simple to prepare flavourful breakfast.
During the fasting time the Hindu's generally have this dish. Perfect dish for the Navarathri vrat too. It is a filling breakfast. After having this dish you wont feel hungry any more. Try this dish and let me know the results.
