Coconut milk :
- Take a cup of grated pulp of coconut, sprinkle water and grind into paste.

- Mix the contents well with a ladle and when it is warm enough to touch knead it to a soft, smooth and non sticky dough with hands.
To prepare Chettinad Seedai :
- Slightly grease the murukku maker, use the disc/ press for Seepu Seedai (single hole one with stripes) and fill in the dough.
- In a cutting board or any plate squeeze the dough into long strips/tapes.
- Cut the strips into equal sized small strips of around 10 cms length each.
- Alternatively, you can flatten the dough on the countertop, with an unused comb draw the stripes on the dough and then cut it into small strips.
