Though we finished with our April month's mega blogging marathon, we are back to our usual 3 days of blogging marathon which kick starts from today. And am taking you all to a beautiful Indian region 'Goa' which have its coastal region known as the Konkan. Its is bounded by Maharashtra in North and Karnataka to east and south, and Arabian sea on its western coast.I had an immense chance to visit this coastal region long back during our Indian trip. Goan cuisine is a fabulous cuisine with many delicious dishes which is very much influenced by the Portuguese cuisine. I picked Regional cuisine of a country as theme for this week's blogging marathon, hence am going to post three interesting Goan traditional dishes.
Alle Belle is a traditional Goan pancake stuffed with a fabulous coconut and palm jaggery filling. These pancakes are prepared on Shrove tuesday,hence they are also known as Pancake tuesday. Shrove tuesday is the day before the Ash wednesday, the first day of Lent.This Alle belle is a definitely a must try if you love pancakes either for your breakfast or else for your evening snacks. However the coconut-palm jaggery filling is an easiest one which gets ready quickly than you imagine. Apart from preparing the pancake batter and cooking these Goan pancakes are seriously very easy to dish out. If you are looking for a delicious, stuffed pancakes to please anyone at home. Just give a try to this Goan pancakes.

One of my kiddos favorite,looks so delicious and wish to have some pancakes.
Coconut jaggery filling is a nice twist to regular pancakes. Would make a great on the go snack too. Nice pick
This recipe looks very innovative. Will definitely try it out.
I love the combination of coconut and jaggery. Stuffing the soft pancakes with it makes it such a drool worthy treat..
This definitely sounds like our eylanchi, with the only difference being that the filling doesn't have jaggery... I am so tempted looking at those pics, can sit and have all of it at one stretch!
Delicious pancake.. So tempting
These pancakes look awesome Priya, I remember Arch's pic and was glued drooling over it..great choice!
Alle Belle sounds delicious. It's like fusion between french pancakes and indian kozhukattai :-) I love anything with coconut, so definitely my kind of food. Will give a try soon and the pics are really tempting, Priya.
Wow coconut and jaggery is a lovely combination. Soft and delicious pancakes
OMG! this is so tempting Priya. The filling is one of my favorites.
Never heard of this recipe. I loved the filling in the pancake and you have made it very nicely. The soft texture is simply awesome..........
Wow, those Goan pancakes look so soft and lacy. Love that coconut filling - sounds so delicious.
I too bookmarked this from Archanas blog and yet to make them.With coconut and jaggery, this must have tasted like apiece of heaven!
