Kamarkat recipe
This reminds me of my childhood days, because Aachi(grandma) used to make this for us quite often and you cannot stop munching on this, we used to pop this in our mouth and keep sucking it. The jaggery and coconut will melt slowly. It has a really wonderful and different taste to it. Plus it is so healthy.
Couple weeks back, i craved for this a lot. When i asked Aachi to make this for me, without any hesitation she got into action. I told her that i will be taking pictures of you as well, she was so excited about that and posed me with patience.
I have quite a few recipes of my grandma in my blog, check all of them here..Among all those recipe, this Smoked Eggplant Kotsu is quite famous.. So i hope you will try this for your kids, they will love it for sure. Old traditional recipes are always treasured ones.
