EXPERT TIPS

1. Original recipe is made using all purpose flour, which gives more better results in terms of texture.
2. Also the dough proofed with yeast gives better texture to the parcels instead of dough prepared using curd/yoghurt.
3. Don’t make recipe if yeast fails to activate. All your efforts will go waste.
4. Dough must be kneaded for good 10 minutes.
5. Never skip the harissa sauce in stuffing. This sauce will take the taste of zingy parcels to another level.
6. Don’t overload the stuffing. It will ooze out while baking.
