This is my long due guest post for VVk vidhya. Last year I gave her this post but I took a break and couldn't post it. When I wanted to get back to blogging, I pinged her to ask if it's ok to post Vegetable puff after 2 or 3 posts. She replied I am glad you are coming back, post it anytime. How sweet😊. We get a connect with certain people without frequent meet/ frequent talk. Sri is one much friend I always treasure.
When I gave this guest post a year back I wrote few lines about her last year.
I am so happy to write a post for my dear friend Sri. I happened to know Sri couple of years back, initially we spoke through our blogs, but within no time we developed a great rapport and started pinging each other regularly. Sri is one friend with whom I have discussed A-Z about blogging, my personal life. In these two years my blog has undergone many small transformations; Sri’s help was there all the time in some ways.
I always adore her commitment towards blogging. In spite of her busy schedule she somehow squeezes time and be regular with her post. I should learn time management from her. Remember my Minestrone soup, it s form her😊
Sri asked me to write a guest post for her space few months ago (now it's a year old) but somehow I had lot of random reasons to delay. May be I took little advantage since it is her. I gave her few options for the guests post, she picked this Puff. Tasty, baked kid-friendly snack!!
Ever since childhood days I love Bakery style Veg puff. It is one of my favorite bakery snacks. During my school days I was so addicted for Veggie Puff and cutlet, every now and then I ask my Amma to buy.
Bakery style Veg puff with some ketchup, hmmmmm heaven is the word. I always thought making puff at home is a big deal, until my friend told about Puff pastry sheet. Home cooking is always best but there are times we can go for few store-bought stuff, as it makes things simple and saves a lot of time. With a delicious stuffing this puff is definitely a winner recipe in any party. Perfect snacks for parties, get together

Notes
2. I stuffed the puff directly in the baking sheet instead it can be done in a plate and transferred
