RenuDi, what is chironji? I have a feeling its not the same as kalonji (which I do have :)
Renu said…
r right, kalongi is a spice and chironji is a dry fruit, its very small and pinkish in color,its available at indian stores in US, if not then u can make with whatever dry fruits u like.we normally use chironji for halwas,kheer etc.
