The sev will not be crispy when hot it becomes crunchy when cool.
You can use ordinary oil for frying if you are not particular in using coconut oil.
But the real taste comes from this coconut-oil which distinguishes this sev from others.
The dough should be pliable neither too hard or loose.
Should be fried on medium flame.
If you not comfortable using stainless steel perforated ladle use a regular murukku press with round holes,but the sev will come out thick.
