Sugar Coated Puffed Lotus Seeds/Sweet Makhana

I have tried couple of dishes with puffed lotus seeds aka Makhana, this puffed seeds are seriously interesting to cook. You can make some quick snacks out of them just by pan roasting them with some spices. My today's post is completely a different version of puffed lotus seeds. Sweet version of puffed lotus seeds are great to carry wherever you go, yes they are seriously prefect to pack for travel. If i plan a trip, i dont carry oily foods with us, i do pack quick snacks like oven roasted almonds, cashews or else quick and oil free rice flakes mixture/chivdas or else baked goodies.
