Seedai is something I enjoy eating rather than making. Even though the ingredients are simple, you must exercise caution as it has the potential to pop. If you use rice flour, make sure to roast it first to reduce the chances of it popping out.
When I make Seedai, I only use 1 cup and no more. Because making those adorable little balls takes time. Please use if you need to lend a hand. Also, before you begin frying, you must first prepare all of the balls (seedai). Many seedai recipes have been posted on my blog. Please try out for Janmashtami.
