Uppu Seedai
Seedai is a common savory prepared in most homes in olden days. Seedai is also available in most sweet and savory shops. Seedai can be made in many ways with many variations and the chettinad seedai is very famous, it is called seedaikkai. This chettinad recipe I shall post later when I do it.
Now as gokulashtami is fast approaching I have made this seedai or uppu seedai. Any one can it easily. You can also try for yourself. The next prime variation in this recipe suitable for Gokulashtami is the vella seedai or sweet seedai, Which I shall post next.
