If you are following my blog, you will definitely know about the wonderful South vs North challenge, an event started by Divya Pramil of You Too Can Cook. The motto of this event is to exchange an Indian recipe between two teams. One team is Southern team (bloggers  born and brought in South India) and the another one team is Northern team (food bloggers born and brought in North India). Every first of a month, a blogger from each team will challenge a recipe from their origin and the opposite team have to cook the recipe challenged by the other team.Very interesting event na, obviously even we are born and brought up in India, seriously we have loads of interesting foods to learn and taste. This event will definitely pull us to discover many interesting dishes been eaten quite usually in other parts of our country. So every first of the month, i'll be always thrilled to check my mails  and this morning, i was surprised to see two more beautiful dishes challenged by two members of this event, for the Southern team Hetal Acharya of Gujarati Zaika challenged us with this fabulous khandvis,while Shama challenged the Northern team with my favourite karupatti aapam.Thanks Hetal for challenging the southern team with this delicious khandvis, i loved it very much.
