Majjige Suttavu is a favorite snack prepared in my family. This snack is prepared by grinding rice and spices in buttermilk, chopped onions and curry leaves are then added. The prepared batter is then poured in Appe pan to make this easy, healthy and delicious snack. These can be served as breakfast or as a small meal too.

Rice – 2 cups
Buttermilk – 2 cups
