Vacation is going on and kids are at home ,and every often they demand for something to eat,for their choti choti bhuk I made this hearty namakpare. This is a very commonly made recipe in my house with variations and different shapes. I added spices to make it more tasty. The best thing is these can be stored up to 1 month,even in summers.
