Surali Vadi - Stove top Method

Tips:
1) Instead of plastic sheet, you can use backside of stainless steel thali (Plates) to make thin layer of mixture. But you will need 5-6 thalis for the whole batter, which would be little difficult to manage.
2) If you don’t want tadka inside the roll, don’t spread tadka on the layer, just spread takda with spoon over the roll after making roll.
3) It would be difficult to make rolls if we spread coconut and cilantro on the layer. In that case, spread only tadka on the layer, make rolls, and garnish them with coconut and cilantro.
