Moong Dal Chaakli/Chakli

Chakli or Chaakli is one of my all time favorite snack.  We do prepare some munchies and sweets for Diwali called Diwali Khaan in Konkani :).

I love every version of chakli like raagi or rice or moong dal :). The traditional chakli requires some effort in terms of pre-preparation. I was looking for a more instant version which would not need as much time and still taste yummy. I found the match on Aayi’s Recipes. The end result was simply amazing and loved by everyone at home and relatives. The credit goes to Aayi’s Recipes for this. Below is the recipe along with my tweaks for everyone to try!
