VERMIICELLI STUFFED BALLS

So my lovely derani Anjali Vithlani an expert mithai master, recently shared her recipe of a brand new mishtan with me.  The Vithlani women, regardless of the fact that they live far apart, are still closely connected with each other and rejoice and  build each other up.  All Vithlani daughter in laws are good cooks, mainly because our family are foodies from children to adults.

So here I am sharing the recipe that Anjali discussed with me.  Please do try making it as Anjali is really a Master of Mithai
