The rava kesari looks great. I liked the fact that you dissolved the sugar in water. Just wanted to let you know. I think you must have missed adding the ingredient “Water” and its quantity to the ingredient list. Most important
Hmm probably you are right let me write down the measurement for water too,thank you for pointing out.
