Method
In a bowl, take the sabudana. Add water, the water turns white due to the starch. Wash sabudana multiple times till water runs clear
Sprinkle water on top. Cover and let it soak for 4-5 hours. Sprinkle water in between. When the sabudana pearls are pressed in between finger they should be soft but not completely mushy

Make tikkis (I used ⅛ Cup measure to portion out the tikkis)
Smear oil on a skillet/pan
Roast the tikkis. Apply some oil in between. Roast the tikkis on both sides till golden
Serve them hot with khatta-meetha chutney or falaari chutney
Notes
Deep fry the tikkis in hot oil if you want
Add black pepper powder if desired
Lightly roasted besan or even cornstarch or cornflour can be added if you are preparing this on non-vrat days
