Heat the mixture on medium flame. Keep stirring constantly for 4 to 5 min.
Lower the heat for 2 min. (take a test by putting a drop of mixture on a corner of plate. In a minute try to take it off from the plate, if its not sticking to the plate surface the mixture is ready.)
Take 6 dinner plates. DO NOT APPLY OIL ON THE PLATES.
Pour approx. 1/4 cup of mixture on each plate & smoothen with a ladle in circular fashion, immediately like a thin Dosa. Do one by one. Keep the rest of the mixture covered while you are spreading it on the plates. Let it cool for 5 minutes.
Now start the preparation for "tadka" by heating oil, add mustard seeds, asefoitida & curry leaves.
Take it off from heat.
Sprinkle it on the plated mixture.
Spread coriander leaves & fresh coconut also.
Now cut approx. 4-5 strips on one plate with knife.
And roll each strip to form the Surali vadi.

Even though the recipe seems lengthy, its a very quick snack.
