First Let me Tell You, that you can send your entries for A.W.E.D - Japan till May 10th.

When I first Came across this Wonderfull Sweet in Veganyumyum. I loved the stuffing and the recipe, was resembling our Modak / Kozhukattai recipe. I wanted to give it a try, and when i have a reason for it, why should i delay, and when i tried it, i found it to be so easy. adding Adzuki bean's/Thatta Payir as stuffing, made this an healthy sweet too. I could not produce, the actual endresult, as the Modak preparation took over me. But iam sure, when the recipe give here is followed, you will relish it definetly.
