Surmai has a layered structure. When it is properly cooked those layers get separated and it is really fun to eat those layers. 

I remember, every time we had get together with our family and friends, my father always used to bring Surmai. Then my Grandmother and Mother used to make a real Crispy Surmai Fry with Little spicy Surmai Curry.
