Though I have visited many parts of Kerala, I had the opportunity to taste this authentic snack of Kerala only last year when I visited Thrissur, a crispy and crunchy snack with mild spicy flavour and fine aroma of coconut.

My friend made this new recipe for my sake when I was there to present me a new recipe for my blog. I got the opportunity to make it only this week.

Instructions

▢
In a blender add coconut, shallots , cumin seeds and grind to fine paste with little water and keep aside.
▢
Heat a pan and dry roast the Rice flour for 5 minutes in medium flame, add the paste and sesame seeds to it, mix well and switch off the stove
▢
Boil 4 cups of water with required salt and 2 table spoons of coconut oil. Switch off.
▢
Slowly pour the boiled water to the rice flour mix and stir it to soft dough as we make for idiyappam or kozhukattai.
▢
When the dough becomes soft and thick enough stop pouring the water. Let it be in the consistency of Roti dough. Check out for salt and if needed add more..
▢
Knead the dough to soft with hand and cover it with a damp cloth and set aside for 30 minutes.
▢
Now take lemon size balls. Grease your palm with oil and place the ball on a plastic sheet and press gently pattering it to circles like thin rotis.
▢
Roll it slowly to cylindrical shape. Press the corners to seal. Make the rest of the rotis too like this.
▢
Fry them in oil till become golden brown. Once they become cold store in air tight boxes.
