💡 How to Prepare / Use (Step-by-Step)
Prep: Bring 2 liters of water to a rolling boil with a pinch of sea salt and a teaspoon of oil. Do not soak the noodles, as unpolished Kodo millet requires direct heat to maintain its structure.
Cook/Method: Add the noodles to the boiling water and cook for 6–8 minutes. Use a fork to gently loosen the strands. Drain and rinse under cold running water immediately to stop the cooking process and ensure a non-sticky finish.
Serve/Enjoy: Sauté with onions, carrots, and beans in cold-pressed groundnut oil. For a traditional twist, serve as "Varagu Sevai" with a side of coconut chutney or a spicy vegetable kurma.
