What is Savory Satpura

Literally  ‘Sat’ means Seven; ‘Pura‘ means Layers. Seven may not be the choice of all. It primarily denotes many layers that bloom out when fried.  Satpura bears resemblance to lachhedar paratha- flatbread with concentric circles.  

These are usually made for Thadri-Satayain- Satam festival during monsoon season. The underlying difference between the traditional Satpura and Savory Satpura is its savory taste which the spices and herbs impart.
