Happy Diwali 2016

Diwali is upon us and it is the season of good food, friends and family getting together and time to get together.

Seera, which is sadly now only made on big occassions or pukas due to the heavy use of ghee (clarified butter) it takes to make it

My mum's version is the yummiest (of course i am biased !!) with almonds and nuts and a not too sweet taste which is perfect for me.
