Most of us love nevris , don't you think so?Me too , love nevris. Its crispy outer crust and the yummy stuffing , who can resist. Deep frying is something I try avoiding, so since I love nevris came up with a baked version. And what better way to implement the baked version , simple the use of short crust pastry dough.
