Very interesting recipe. Is it common in that part of South Africa? Incidentally, in Northern India especially in the hilly regions near Himalayas, this is prepared during festival times and known as Puva (pronounced as poowaa). I feel happy with this similarity as I belong to that part of India. Thanks for posting.
This look yummy. The recipe caught my eye. Thanks for sharing.
Great idea. I've never made homemade donuts. There are much more easier than I expected. Nice recipe.
Lovely recipe, Mitara. Pretty simple to make. Will be trying it out today. Thanks for sharing
They look really good. What is cardamom powder? Would it hurt them if I added an egg?
I'm not sure how the comments section ended up here. But this is a great recipe for lockdown, especially as eggs can be hard to get sometimes.
Hey even I can do this one, yummy in my tummy!
