Madhura Seva

I adore this sweet snack which is very famous and commonly made in all malayali homes. I have a special attachment to it because this was my grand dad's favourite snack. I still remember how he used to keep jars of cashew nut and madhura seva in his coveted cupboard and present it to us when we go to visit him during our vacation times. He left this world 5 years ago and even now I cherish the beautiful moments I had with him. He was truly a very special person in my life. He would definitely smile at me from his abode for making this! Love you Appacha.
