Seviyan Patata / Saiyyun Patata
Sunday morning breakfast has always been a big affair in our family. The breakfast is discussed at length on Saturday evening and after a good debate would settle for what majority would want to eat and when it was Saiyyun, Patata & papad (Sweet Vermicelli & Fried Potatoes) there was no discussion at all. This sweet and savoury combination was a treat we always looked forward to as kids and even today.
Very very thin vermicelli (sevaiyyan in hindi or Urdu) are made from refined flour, these are popularly cooked with milk for making the famed Sheer Korma or the simple Sevaiyaan Kheer. They are also broken and used as a layer over cutlets before deep frying, to give them the crispy outside and melt in mouth inside texture.
