Tomato Schezwan Ammini Kozhukkattai / Mini Rice Balls
Advertisement
Ammini Kozhukattai also known as Mani or Uppu Ammini Kozhukattai usually made with plain rice flour. it is very easy to make. These are mini versions of the kozhukattais we make. This ammini kozhukkatai, instead of making in our traditional method I have made it in a schezwan style. Kids love this unique variety . Recent days kids don’t like our traditional foods at the same time, we should not forget our traditional dishes as well. So instead, we should prepare our traditional foods in such a way that kids love it. So I prepared this dish by combining traditional and kids fav Chinese ingredients. Try this amazing fusion dish!
