MAL PUA

Past 2 days, I was browsing through net what to prepare on the occasion of Rakhi. Though my brother likes sweet dish I was searching for new recipe. Mal pua is the one which I got struck when I saw here. We dont used to celebrate rakhi in grand way as like as that of northies, but in simple way just tie rakhi on bhaya's hand , pray for him to live long life and the main part getting gifts as a token of love and affection. My elder brother and bhabhi stays currently in Neitherland and my 2 cousin brothers in Mumbai and Indore. Even though they are far, I wished them by sending rakhi greetings. You know friends , me and my brother still fights and tease each other through chat but still cares for each other and this is the unique relationship. I would like to dedicate this post to my brothers and pray for their good luck and good health.
