Add a photoNankhatai Recipe is a classic Indian eggless shortbread cookies prepared with ghee and gram flour. These days we all have fallen for fancy first world cookies with gourmet ingredients. Somewhere Indian baked goodies have lost their glory, infact the new generation hardly recognize these conventional cookies. When I baked Nankhatais, a wave of nostalgia hit me hard. After tasting Nankhatai I was taken aback into the childhood days when life used to revolve around simple pleasures like Nankhatai.
