Notes:

  1. Actually, in the original recipe, aunty told me to add green chili paste. If felt that it will be too hot and so added red chilli.
  2. Do not worry about the sago will get struck into the holes in the achu. It will come smoothly.
  3. Just mash it nicely with your hands before adding the flour.
  4. As yogurt is added you can add a little more chilli powder also.
  5. If the sago is not soaked properly it will burst in oil. Ensure it is soft
