Recipe Notes

If the mixture becomes soft then add 2-3 tablespoons of corn flour or bread crumbs and let it rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
You can add green chillies, coriander or finely chopped veggies of your choice.
Always grease your palm before shaping the suji fingers, else they will stick to your palm.
After shaping the fingers, let them rest in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes, they will become firm and will be easy to fry.
