Ingredients

  • Rice flour
  • Water
  • Food coloring (for varieties of color)

Directions

1

Boil water in a deep pot.

2

Slowly add the required amount rice flour and food color into the boiling water, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon. It is same as the process of making dhindo but without the ghee. The mixture should have a good balance and consistency of flour and water.

3

After it is cooked, process the dough through a noodle machine that can make really thin strips.

4

Shape the dough strips into circles. Set out in the sun for a few days to dry and set.

5

Once evenly set, deep fry them in vegetable oil.
