Crunchy Maida Seedai Recipe | Easy Seedai Recipe

       Seedai is a snack made with rice flour and is famous or more consumed in southern part of India ..Maida seedai is made with all purpose flour instead of rice flour.It is more crunchy than previous ones.Now a days commercially available seedai are all made of maida, because of the crunchy and more tasty outcome.

     Seedai can be savory or sweet and flour used can vary from  rice flour,rava,maida and for savory version of it coconut milk is added for taste and texture.Traditional method of preparation is different from using rice flour and is to soak rice and grind rice to smooth paste.Excess water is drained,made into equal size balls and then deep fried.
     What so special about this version ? Remember in my previous post,... There was a long note of how you can avoid bursting? Maida seedai will never burst .So don't care anymore  about it and start making these tasty beauties for your snack.
