I'm just getting into pocket cooking, but I love this recipe! I'll try it soon and let you know what I think for sure, wish me luck! Dough and I don't always get along!!! lol ~Laura ;D


Great recipe Mumtaz! Thanks for sharing although I'll agree with Laura that dough and me too don't go too well together, but I'll sure give it a try - Amna.


Salaamz Mumtaz,
Hope ur well, I attempted making these the other day and i must say that I thought the dough is going to b tricky, coz I always make a mess where dough is, but the dough was nice to work with, and they were delicious...
Thanks 4 this.
