Method:
Firstly heat
a pan and add the rice powder with 1-1.5 cups of water. Stir continuously and
add salt when the water starts to bubble.
Then set
aside the rice powder mixture when the water has dried off.
Now roll
and gather the mixture out into a dough.
And now roll
the dough out into a big flat tortilla. Cut the tortilla out into thin pasta
shaped “semai” strips with a sharp knife.
Meanwhile,
heat the milk with cardamoms, cinnamon sticks, bay leaves, sugar and coconut.
When the milk has thickened a bit, add the pasta styled strips. Stir slowly and
cook for a few minutes until the semai strips swell.
Finally
serve this dish (Semai Pitha) any decorated plate or bowl.
