Sago Fryums / Sabubiyam Odiyalu / Javarisi Vadam

Photobucket

Crunchy and crispy fryums is for sure the favorite of kids. why not adults?!!! I simply love it with sambhar rice :)

There are many varieties and shapes of fryums, but this is my most favorite one. The tiny balls make it look extra attractive.

Grandma had come home and making these fryums is her forte :) She made it just like a breeze and I loved learning it from her and helping her out in the process.

It is so simple to make them at home and this is the right season to do it too. It super hot summer and it hardly takes few hours to make and two days to get it done completely. Grab the chance right now and I am sure you would make it and enjoy them as well :)

We also made two other varieties which I shall post soon :)

Ingredients:

Sago - 2 cups
Water - 10 cups
Green chillies - 10
Asafoetida - 1 tsp
Salt - for taste
Food color of your choice

Plastic sheets to dry the fryums.

Method:

Take the water and sago in a heavy bottomed vessel and cook on medium flame until it is 3/4th done. The sago would become big in size and would become almost transparent. This process could take around 20 - 30 mins.

Remove from flame and close the vessel with a lid.

Grind the chillies coarsely.

Add salt, asafoetida and coarsely ground chillies and mix well. Finally add the food color you require and mix well.

Spread plastic sheets on the ground, under direct sun light. Spread half a ladle of the above made mixture into a circular shape. Do the same until all the batter is done.

Allow this to dry for two days under hot sun. Peal them out from the plastic sheet and dry it on a plate for two more days until it is completely dry.

Store in air tight containers.

Fry them in hot oil and enjoy eating crispy sago fryums :)

Note:

Try eating one when it is half dried ;P you would love it for sure.
