The Goan Neuris, a Christmas delicacy you crunch the season with. In a way it ushers Christmas. This crusty, crispy Neuris our womenfolk will cook in abundance, to make sure there is enough left, even after the Xmas season ends. Its also a important part of Consuada, a Xmas silver tray of Xmas sweets & delicacies covered with napkin embroidery that your sibling sisters have to deliver it to our neighbors and relatives living nearby. Of course, you didn't have to cajole them to deliver, they loved it and all the swooning they were showered with. . No Neuris, No Christmas. its simple as that, every full blooded Goan knows it in his heart.Again a super presentation Credit to : Florency Dias.
