Warm water to knead the dough
Some Rajgira flour for dusting

Instructions
First wash and soak sabudana in minimum water for an hour or more.
Meanwhile knead the dough with rajgira atta and rock salt with warm water, to make cones.
Cover the dough and keep aside. Rest it for 10 minutes. Divide the dough in 2 equal parts.
Roll one dough ball in round shape in between two plastic sheets. As rajgira atta is difficult to handle, take care while rolling it and moulding it.
Remove the plastic sheets. Then cut the round chapati in 2 halves with knife.Take one half and roll it like how we make samosa cover or cone.
Like this method, in all make 2 round chapatis, cut it in half and roll like samosa cover/cone.
In this way you will have 4 cones.
Now bake/deep fry rajgira cones in oil. Heat the oil and after that lower the flame
First take one Cone and put the open side of Cone down in the oil first
Let it fry on that side for few seconds and after that turn it in the oil and deep fry on all the sides. Likewise fry all 4 cones one by one.
Drain this on tissue paper.
Now make stuffing of sabudana Khichdi for cones :
In a non stick pan put clarified butter. Add cumin seeds. Add chopped chillies. Once it crackle, add boiled and chopped potatoes. Saute it and add previously soaked sabudana to it.
Add salt and red chilli powder. Now add coarse powder of groundnuts. Saute it and add sugar. Mix nicely and finish it with lemon juice.
Remove the pan from the stove and garnish with chopped coriander. Remove in a bowl nd keep it aside
Assembly of Cone :
Take one Cone, fill it with stuffing of sabudana khichdi. Top it with farari/upvaas namkeen over it. Again later with sabudana khichdi.
