Light up the lamps, keep this special karthigai kozhukattai for neiveidhyam. Cool down completely then you can serve it as such. I wouldnt suggest to store this, make it fresh and finish it off within a day.

The dough should be soft free from cracks otherwise while shaping it will tend to break. Be careful while handing the dough as it might be very hot.
