I love Indian festivals as it is all about indulging in a tummy full of sweet tooth delicacies. Navratri is no different but, for a change this time around I went with something spicy and decided to make Ammini Kozhukkattai AKA kara/mani/mini kozhukattai. I usually like the sweeter version of kozhukattai and had prepared it few days back for Ganesh Chaturthi. Traditionally kozhukattai is associated with the Hindu God Ganesha, and prepared as an offering on the occasion of Vinayaka Chaturthi.

Talking about Egg Puffs, the first thing that comes to my mind is monsoon days in Kerala. Coming home from school all drenched in the rain. I remember my dad used to bring home hot and fresh egg puffs from our local bakery. It was perfect for those chilly evenings with a warm cup of tea.
