Here's a quick, simple and easy appetiser recipe. This is another one of my earlier posts which I recently revisited. I got this recipe from my friend Divya. I dont know why I took this long to update the post with better pictures.
It's an absolute breeze to make this dish. It's packed with flavours and super easy to make. It's a good dish to make while entertaining and you can make it ahead too.
If your kids like store bought nuggets and the likes, I'm sure this will be a hit with them too.
