Eggless Tutti Fruitti Cake | How to make Tutti Fruitti Cake | Eggless Cake Recipe

Eggless Tutti Fruitti Cake is one of my favorite cake in my childhood days. I love to eat tutti Fruitti from them. I adopted the cake from here and it came out awesome. I could not wait for the cake to cool down as my children were after me and I was in a hurry to click the pictures. If the clicks were not good this the reason 😜😜.

Notes:
1. If channa is soaked overnight, no need to pressure cook it separately. It will become very mushy, as we cook it along with rice. If soaked for 4 hours, pressure cook first and then again cook with rice.
2. Adding the channa masala is enough, as it gives unique flavor. If you want, you can add garam masala also. But keep in mind to check for the spiciness.
