Soak the boiled rice for 3 hours ahead, and grind it to a smooth paste adding enough salt . Use only consistent water as as batter should be thicker.
Soak the boiled rice for 3 hours max(if u makin it quick),.mostly some keep it for 6-8 hours(over night), and grind it to a smooth paste adding enough salt . Use only consistent water; as batter should be thicker.
Transfer the contents of the grinder in to small idle moulds(greased with oil) or medium sized plate. Keep it for steaming for 30 mins.
Once you have steamed the batter, start the process of sevai extrusion.
Briskly add the steamed pieces into the sevai maker and press to get steaming hot noodles of rice sevai.
Keep aside each time the sevai to cool.
Delicious home made Sevai is ready to be eaten plain. 
Best goes along sweet coconut milk (grind grated coconut, sqeez to take out the milk, add jaggary power and cardamon powder).
Also can be had along fish/chicken curry.
