INGREDIENTSLemon sevai is a tangy tasty tiffin or breakfast recipe I usually make at home.Specially helpful in days whenever onion is forbidden,this is a wholesome dinner option as well.I made this with with rice flour,but you can make it the traditional way of soaking the rice and grinding it nicely and steaming it and then putting it in the nazhi or press and squeeze out.That process is long,time consuming but very tasty.The method I used is equally flavourful and forms a good meal.See down below the recipe of Lemon Sevai..
