This looks totally yum! I am planning on leaving out the cumin seeds and banana (kids are fussy). Would i need to increase the quantity of the yogurt in this case?
Thanks!
Hi Connie
Banana is a must in this recipe .
You can skip cumin seeds.
Don’t increase yoghurt qty .

Hi Susanna
We need to add banana in this recipe (mangalore banana poories ).
The goan ones I guess don’t use banana but the recipe will be different.

Can I use same quantity of all purpose flour instead of wheat flour?
Hi Nikita
You could try , not sure how easy it would be to roll out as maida tends to stretch, and don’t know how the end result will be
