I had the opportunity to go round kolkata city to see pandal i have covered ONLY 25 to 30 pandals, IN 3 days after travelling day and night, Most of the pandal were house model, others were unique, which are displayed, after going round kolkata it stuck me that Bengali live only for this Durga pujo, Kolkata does not sleep all these four days.
This is another unique pandal, made using pencil sticks, very colorful and excellent creation by the artist,
THIS IS PART OF THE UNIQUE PANDAL, DESIGNED USING PENCIL STICKS.

Toasted Idliwich
Ingredients:
Idli dough
Green coriander/pirai chutney :(as mentioned earlier in coriander chutney only we should delete the pirai from pirai chutney rest of the ingredients will remain the same )
Tomatoes..2
Kakdi(kukumber) ..2
Onion ...2
Method:
Take kadai and put one -two teaspoonful of cooking oil spread it and pour one big tablespoonful of idli dough spread it (it should be thicker than dosa and thinner than uttapam )keep it in low flame with a lid .Once the upper surface becomes dry spread chutney evenly .now put the round thin slices of tomatoes ,kakdi and onion and if u want put sandwich masala but i have put another layer of green chutney on it .now spread one more tablespoonful of idli dough on it and keep in low flame for another 5-7minutes til the upper layer becomes dry .now put little oil from all the side and revert it and keep it for another 5 minutes .now u can remove this idliwich the cover becomes very crispy .Although have taken the picture of each stage i am uploading with 3 steps for u .if u want I can upload each steps .
Please don’t laugh and enjoy the hot idliwich with tomatoes sauce or alone .All the best and happy Dasera
