These are some of HIS names!!!!
He loves Kozhukkattais, Modhakaas.....
But it's quite a laborious process. malpatskitchen brings a very easy method , a quick method, easy for a beginner who has not ever done kozhukkattai maavu..... here it is!!!!
Ingredients
1 measure Kozhukkattai or very fine rice flour (You can use a cup, a big ladle, a tumbler or a bowl)
1 1/2 measure water
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp cooking or gingely oil
1 tsp milk
Cooking time: 7 - 8 minutes; Prep time: 5 - 7 mts
I used this brand flour, any brand is fine. Or like Double horse rice flour, which is extremely fine like butter
Take one measure flour. Use a non stick pan only
add 1 1/2 measure water
add salt
add gingely/cooking oil
add 1 tsp milk
Mix everything well into a lump - free mixture
Start cooking on a medium flame
It will slowly start thickening
and will leave the sides and form a thick ball
flames on the lowest, keep it covered for 2 - 3 minutes
This is the best way to check...wet your fingers, touch and see...the batter should not stick
Cover with a wet towel
Cover with a lid, allow to rest for 15 - 20 minutes
Knead to a soft dough, dipping your fingers in a drop of oil
See...soft choppus have been made, kept on a greased steamer plate. While shaping a choppu, use oil or rice flour to dab your fingers on and off
Isn't it perfect???
You can make my special Salem style Dhal pockets
Our Tanjore style Urad dhal kozhukkattais
Or the Modhakams
Hope this post turns out to be really useful to you all!!!
