Recipe Introduction:
Hi Friends, I like to introduce you all with my favorite dish "Pearl Sago Rings". This recipe actually I learned it from my grandmother. But now I flavor it in my own way. Most of you don't feel to eat deep fried food. But the specialty of my recipe is that though it is deep fried, it does not take much oil. And believe me it is a really very easy and also less time taking dish. So here goes my recipe details.

Name:
Pearl Sago Rings

Ingredient List:

1Cup - Sabudana or Saggubiyyam
1/2Cup - Curd (Bit sourness should be there)
1cup - Boiled and mashed Potato
3Tbsp - Rice Flour
1/4Cup - Corrainder (cut to small)

1Tbsp - Chilli Powder
1Pinch - Chat Masala
1Pinch - Salt
Oil to deep fry


Description:

Soak sabudana in curd and keep it aside for 3hours. Sabudana mixes well in curd and as time goes on, it nicely gets the taste of sour curd.
Now mix the soaked sabudana, boiled and mashed potato, corrainder, chilli powder, chat masala, salt and last rice flour.
Take a deep frying pan, add oil and heat.
Just lightly wet your hand, and take a small quantity of the mix and slowly make a tube.
Now slowly join the ends of the tube. Be careful to check the whole ring is without any breaks.
Check for oil heatness and deep fry the ring until light brown.
Now place them once in tissue and keep for 3minutes.
Now serve them hot in plate with ketchup.
Hot, Crispy and Delicious Pearl Sago Rings are ready.
Tips and Notes:

Curd should be lightly sour so that you get a nice yummy taste.
Sago should be not so har and not so soft after 3hours soaked in sour curd.
Oil should not be over heated. By overheating, the rings may get brown early and the inner part may be still raw.
Can be done not only in rings shape but also circular shape.

Can be taken with ketchup or green chutney.
