Instead of making pooran fully with coconut, for a change I tried this Aval Kozhukattai that needs a little coconut. It came out very well and the aval/ poha helps to absorb the jagerry in pooran when it melts during steaming. So the Kozhukattais come out perfectly without any juice coming out and looks pure white..

Instructions

▢
Pooran: Add the Aval and grated coconut and mix well. Add ghee, cardamom powder and keep stirring till it becomes thick, and comes out rolling without sticking to the pan.
▢
Switch off the stove. Once it gets cooled down make small marble size balls of it and keep aside. (My Pooran is looking dark, since I used organic unrefined jaggery)
▢
Outer cover dough: Mix two cups of rice flour in water like rawa dosa batter consistency. Add little salt and two tea spoons of oil to it. Heat a pan.
▢
Pour the rice flour batter into it and stir it continuously. Stir till it becomes tight like a Chapati dough. Switch off the stove.
▢
How to make Modhaks? Take a big goose berry size balls of rice dough and grease the ball with a drop of oil. Make small cups of it and put the pooran balls inside.
▢
Bring the edges to the centre and seal them. Place the Kozhukattais in a greased idli plate and steam them for 10 minutes.
