Lemon sevai, Lemon idiyappam recipe, How to make lemon sevai

Lemon sevai is a tangy and spicy recipe prepared by tossing cooked idiyappam / string hopper in lemon mixture. This recipe is my favorite breakfast recipe as it is similar to the lemon rice preparation and can be prepared in 10 minutes. This recipe can be prepared with ready made idiyappam packet or by making idiyappam at home from scratch, both tastes equally good. So lets get to the making!
