Sounds interesting mzganapathy. Thanks for the recipe. One small tip, if you'd like to try instant sevai like the ones you get back home, get simple rice noodles from a Chinese or Japanese shop. They are almost the same as sevai when cooked in boiling water with salt. In fact they are a little stretchy and don't crumble that easily. but make sure to cook it right..too much cooking makes them like mush. Seasoning it the same way you mentioned above also goes with it.
