Bhel Chaat
'Diwali is one of my favourite festivals that we celebrate, its where I can get together with the family to eat lots of food and Indian sweets and celebrate with lots of light (fireworks) and laughter. Having a big family we need to make sure that we have plenty of food so this is a great starter/snack to share and its quick and easy to make giving me more time to spend time with my family, especially my nan!'
