Phova indori/hindori (beaten rice flakes sweet)

Today My Page Geethas Rasoi’s 2^nd Birthday.  My page mainly focuses on traditional and authentic Konkani dishes.  On  this very  occation I want to present a dish called “Hindori/Indori” which my hubby’s Grand Mother used  to prepare well.  I learnt this from my Mother –in-law.  This has two variants, one is Boiled Rice Kana Hindori  and the other one is Beaten Rice Hindori.  Here I  prepared the Beaten Rice Hindori and I dedicate this very dish to my hubby’s Grand Mom and my  page  followers.
