Luni khaja #festivesavouries

Luni means namkin, khaja is prepared in the kitchen of the Lord Jagannath Temple of Puri daily and being served as Prasad.It's one of my favourite snacks. I have made this with Flour ( Maida), rice flour, kala jeera ( Black Cumin) and oil. This is best taken with piping hot tea/coffee during afternoon/evening. Easy to prepare and good to taste!
