The most common version consists mainly of rice flour or ragi (Finger millet) flour, salt, and water to make thin noodles that are woven into six-to eight-inch discs then steamed for about ten minutes until they have turned light brown in color. It is commonly served with meat curries as well as chutney made out of coconut during breakfast or dinner time.
