Story/History of recipe

Uppu Kadalai is a South Indian famous snack that is prepared in an unique cooking technique called "hot salt frying". In this technique, a few cups of salt is preheated in a wide iron pan / wok instead of using oil for frying. It is an old and popular technique followed by villagers of Asian countries.
