My Note

• Don't throw the dosakaya seeds. They have good nutritional values.
• Wash seeds thoroughly and dry them under sun and store them in absolutely clean container. I will let you know how to use these seeds.
• For variation you add mint leaves also while grinding.
• Chutneys made in Mortar & Pastle (rolu) add a special taste than in modern mixers.
