Assamese Baked Savoury Kordois | Low calorie Kordois Recipe

Hi Supermoms,

" Kordois" is an Assamese Snack that is made either as a sweet or as a savoury snack. This snack is made specially on Bihu Festival days. The Kordoi is shaped like a 'Star Fruit' using the all purpose flour and traditionally deep fried. But in this healthier version, I have used Multigrain flour , carrots and baked the kordois instead of deep frying them . Crisp and tasty Kordois can make your tea time interesting and wholesome. 

Instead of baking this dish, you can also deep fry them.  A very tasty snack .
