Vermicelli or Seviyan in Hindi are small sized noodles used in a variety of dishes including Seviyan kheer , Seviyan Upma , Seviyan Pulav etc. In some parts of North India hand made vermicelli are enjoyed with a dough made of All purpose flour. Ladies used to sit together in groups like a festival gathering and make these tiny noodles with hand. My family loves the sweet as well as savory version. I prepared the spicy pulav from hand made vermicelli with lots of veggies . So let’s start the recipe .yum
