3.  In a mixing bowl add sabudana, crushed peanuts, salt, sugar, red chilli powder and lemon juice. Mix well.
 
4.  Heat oil in a pan, add mustard, when they start spluttering add cumin seeds. Add Curry leaves and mix well.
5.  Now add sabudana mixture and give a good mix.
6.  Sprinkle a little water and cover the pan. Flame on medium. Cook for 3-4 minutes and mix again.
7.  Cover and let it cook for 5 minutes. Becomes transparent while cooking and tends to be a little sticky. Put off the heat.
8.  Garnish with coriander leaves.
