Across
- 2. I am a sweet message from East of India
- 4. I am the desi savoury cake yet not baked and I can be yellow or white

- 10. I am from the Middle East but now I stay in Punjab, I get my colour from tea and my partner is fat
- 11. I am very ancient and native to India, I’m fried yet healthy – Americans mistake me for donuts yet I am not sweet
- 12. I have got layers – an earthen pot is where I show my magic; find me on your plate on festivals or house parties
