Rice by itself is a perfect gluten-free ingredient which plays a key role in all South Indian cuisines.This ingredient is dominantly diverse and a great boon for gluten sensitive persons.Ready made rice flour are readily available at all the grocery stores nowadays.But,making our own is always very special and more economical.For making this rice flour “mavu rice” will be more apt than any other. This mavu rice gives more volume than any other variety of rice. 
If this rice is not available you can use regular ponni rice which is parboiled or sona masuri. This rice flour homemade recipe is the most needed item here in South India for making any type of murukus and snacks. I totally love-making iddiyapam and sevai’s with this rice flour homemade recipe,its soft ,fluffy and totally comforting. If you are making in small batches you can use your mixer jar itself,but when the quantity is big then give to a flour mill and get the work done.
