Tips and Suggestions by Mom Chef:-

  • A 1:1 ratio of sabudana and water should always be used.  So for 1 cup of sabudana, use 1 cup of water for soaking. A lot of water will result in a clump and make a gloopy mess!
  • Once sabudana is added, it should not be cooked or stirred for too long; otherwise, it will stick together.
  • It should be served warm with chilled yogurt.
