CAN I STORE RAVA FINGERS?
If you have plans to serve it as a party snack, then you can prepare and shape them before time and fry it immediately before serving, otherwise they may turn soggy, especially during rainy season.
However if you want to make them much earlier or wish to keep them available for anytime immediate snack, then store them before frying in an airtight container for 3 to 4 days in the freezer.
You only need to coat the fingers in all-purpose flour and place it in a container and keep it in your freezer. Take out an hour before frying. For immediate defrosting, you can also microwave them.
SERVING IDEAS
You can serve with green chutney or tomato ketchup.
It can be served as a replacement to french fries with burger or anything having french fries as a side dish.
This is indeed a good idea for the kids school lunch boxes.
