Rekha's Notes
while making Instant vada mix, always dry roast the fresh herbs so that they are completely dehydrated. That way you can store that for longer time.
Roast semolina or sooji on slow heat. Idea here is to completely roast the semolina to remove rawness but not to change it's colour in the process.
