Maida Sweet Seedai are crunchy, mild sweet balls made by shaping maida & powdered sugar dough into balls and frying them. Maida Sweet Seedai is a good choice of seedai when we run out of rice flour & makes us feel the Krishna Jayanthi complete with this offering.
I wanted to try this Maida sweet seedai recipe for quite sometime in Nithis space and wanted to try as she said it is easy and no burst seedai recipe,which is what I wanted.This easy seedai recipe is a must try for last minute preparations too.I have already posted maida uppu seedai , please check it but this one is even more easier as it involves no steam cooking and preparation of the flour.
This seedai is crunchy and soft inside, not too crispy. I loved it and I tell its super addictive that I couldn’t stop when I started eating.
