• First rinse the raw rice twice, and soak it in water for 1 hour.

• Then spread the raw rice in a soft towel and allow it to dry say for 30-45mins. It will be slightly moist only and few rice will stick to your hands when you touch and see, this is the perfect stage. Then transfer this to a mixer.
• Grind to a fine powder. Transfer to sieve.
• Sieve it well.
• Take coconut in a mixer, add little water and grind it.

• Form a smooth nonsticky dough without any cracks. Take your seepu seedai press...Now fill the murukku press with little dough.
• Now start pressing them into long tapes then cut them into small strips (around 10 cm) on a big board or your kitchen counter. I used my wooden board.
• Join the ends of the strips around your forefinger to make cylinders. Gently remove it and place it. Repeat the same till the entire dough gets over.
• Heat oil, to check if the oil is hot just add a pinch of the dough....if it raises immediately then oil is ready...
• Now carefully add the prepared seepu seedai's  may be 6-7 at a time and fry till golden brown. Drain in tissue paper. Seepu Seedai ready!

Alternate Method if you do not have press :

• This is an alternate method if you dont have the seepu seedai press....but this method using comb is sure time consuming.
• First grease the board with oil...take a small portion of dough and roll it to 2mm thikness...then  use a new unused comb and press it slightly so that the impression is on the thumb.
• Cut into strips and roll it as mentioned before. Cool down and store Seepu Seedai in an airtight container.
