A popular steamed Street food. Lots of vegetables with some spices packed in a whole wheat cover and steamed to eat. Traditionally this is made up with all purpose flour (Maida). But here i twisted the recipe using whole wheat flour (aata) instead of all purpose flour (Maida) to add some goodness while not compromising much with taste. Health Bhi,Taste Bhi!
