Notes

Adjust spices to your taste. 
You can skip rice flour but it is highly recommended to get a good result. 
Arbi should be cooked well and must retain its shape. Make sure it doesn't turn mushy. 
I usually cook arbi for 2 whistles and get perfect result. If yours is not cooked after 2 whistles, cook for 1 more whistle and check again.
