About My Favourite Snacks?
Pan Cakes are one of the unique and exquisite Sri Lankan snack. I love it because although it's just a snack it has a great nutritional value as well as the incredible taste. This snack is a combination of Atta flour, coconut and jaggery. This is easy to make and anyone can enjoy it without no side effects. The specialty, it's a healthy snack but not a fast food.

Thank You for inviting me
Wow this is great, I’ve not seen pancakes made this way I’d be delighted to make one myself but I’m not sure I can get these ingredients in my county Cameroon, are there any substitutes to the cardamom? And can I do it without it?
Thanks I’ll be waiting to hear from you
Thank for your comment ❤️ Glad to hear that you love it....
Cardamom is used to add flavour and a nice odour to the filling but instead you can add some vanilla 😁
Ok dear thanks so much for this I’ll make it
