Have it by itself or in bhelpuri or mixture




In India, fresh coconuts are offered to God and then thick flakes of the coconut mixed with some sugar and lentils are distributed as prasadam for worshippers. The fresh coconut tasted very good but as kids, we were prohibited from having too much of it as it would cause stomach ache or cough. Fried coconut slices are used in savoury mixture.
These C2O Baked Coconut chips pack that freshness and sweetness without the fear for digestion. As you concentrate on the thin flakes, its almost like a sweet version of Ribbon Murukku (an Indian Savoury). Even though, there is salt, the crunch brings out the sweetness more.
These will go well topped on a chocolate cake, both colour wise and flavour. They can be used in bhelpuri, savoury mixture(mix of spicy ingredients).

She said that as she would shape the dough, it would spring back to its original shape. That makes me appreciate the complexity of dishes and the act of cooking. My neighbor impressed with my interest in he sweet, shared some Mohanthal with us. It is truly a sweet from heaven. I was reminded of a sweet from my marriage. Another neighbor quipped about the satisfactoin of eating when very hungry and not as much when you eat on time everyday, which resonated in the following lines of Charles Bukowski in  Wandering in the cage. "the best thing about near-starvation and hunger is that when you finally eat it is such a beautiful and delicious and magical thing. people who eat 3 meals a day throughout life have never really tasted food… "
