These buns I tasted when we were on a trip to Mangalore and other nearby places. On the way we stopped at a restaurant for tea and snacks. Here we ordered for a typical Mangalorean dish and these buns were served to us. They were in the shape of puris and slightly sweet. The combination they served with these buns was excellent. Coconut chutney and vegetable kurma were the accompaniments. We enjoyed them and the restaurant manager even gave us the recipe! Kids will relish it.
This recipe makes about three to four buns.
