Sabudana Popcorn or Fried Sago Pearl Pops are a great treat to your loved ones on any given day. The only important thing is to dry them until dry and crisp. Nylon Sabudana works good for this lip-smacking homemade fresh recipe. I have used it because of it's large size. Other varieties of Sabudana also can be used if desired. But Nylon Sabudana variety works perfectly fine for this.
Sun drying is an important part. The longer they are Sun dried, the more crisp and crunchy they get after frying. One can enjoy it as a lovely snack, a crunchier Brunch or even as a side to meals with family and friends. It's basically an excellent accompaniment at mealtimes just like Papad. Plain Salt and Pepper are fine to toss it with but other Herbs or any spices or masalas can be used to sprinkle these little milky White beautiful Pops or Popcorn.

Sabudana Papad, Sabudana Kachri or Crispies are made by many households and these go as a popular accompaniment to many an important family meals. Though these are most commonly made and relished, do give this simple and a easy Sun dried recipe too for a change and drop me a feedback if tried and loved it.

Homemaker by choice and a passionate cook by heart. An aspiring cook who actually never knew anything about Cooking until i became a mother myself.With Motherhood came the responsibilities as well and this was the turning point in my life.I started to learn the ABC's of cooking, taking help from my mother and my MIL. And time just flew. I spread my wings higher and higher. With my love for excellence and innovation, i stepped into a world of homecooks with my exposure to Cookpad one fine day on the social media. And there was no looking back since then and i have not only shared recipes here on this wonderful platform but also have made some lovely friends as well. Today iam successful because of my hard work, dedication and loads of good wishes of my family and my kids in particular.
