How to Use:
Use this grated mixture as a replacement for rice. Serve it on your plate just as you would serve an helping of rice. To this, you can can add Gravy, Rasam, Sambhar etc, just like you would take along with rice.
Mix with your fingers so that it gives you a feeling of having a meal with rice (Eating the traditional way- using all the 5 fingers has its own advantages...)
And yes, do take other green veggies and side dishes as usual. What makes our eating experience unique is the ritual. If you eat this as you would eat in South India with hand ( sans spoon) you will not miss cooked rice.
