Healthy (and Tasty) Snack-Sukha Bhel

It's 5pm and i feel like having something 'chatpata'.Hmmm,so what is quick,tasty and chatpata-Sukha bhel!!
If you are wondering why I've added "and tasty" in the title,it's because my husband Vinayak strongly feels that if I just put it as 'Healthy Snack' nobody will want to try it as everyone assumes that anything healthy is not tasty. Not true. You don't have to pour oodles of ghee/oil/butter to make something tasty. Try out this simple and easy snack,and you'll know!!
