Do not add too much water.Now grease your palms with oil and make small balls roughly from the dough.You do not have to make fine smooth balls. Make small sized balls , so that it will get cooked well inside.Spread the balls in a cloth for 10 minutes to dry if required.Heat oil in a kadai, add a small ball of seedai, if it comes to the surface, the oil is hot enough to fry the seedais.Now keep it in medium flame, drop a handful of balls gently into the oil and fry the balls.Keep stirring so that it will get cooked evenly.Once the frying sound subsides, remove the seedais with a slotted ladle and transfer to a colander to drain the excess oil.Yummy and crunchy seedais are ready. Store it in an airtight container.
