Vellam pidi kozhukattai (Jaggery & Idiyappam dough sweet) - Preparation time 15 mins
Mom used to make this sweet often but I am afraid to try this one because if you add too much jaggery the kozhukattai will be half cooked and sticky. If sweet is less it won't taste good.
One saturday evening I thought of trying out this so called mom and checked with her how to make and tried. Wow it came out well. I am sharing this sweet recipe with you.
Ingredients:-
Jaggery - 100 gms or 1/2 cup (i took 1/2 from jaggery ball) melt with little water remove the dirt and boil for few mins.
Idiyappam dry flour - 1 cup (keep some extra flour for safer side)
Water - 1 cup
Salt - a pinch
Coconut - Chopped finely 1 tbsp
Cardamom powder - 1/2 tsp
Sesame oil - To apply on your palm while making kozhukattai
Preparation method:-
Boil the water along with cardamom powder, melted jaggery (if you are afraid that jaggery will be more keep little syrup and add the remaining), salt (to bring up the sweetness) and chopped coconut.
When water boils with bubble add the idiyappam flour and mix well. It will absorb all the water and thick dough.
Switch off when the dough absorbs all the water and leave to cool (the dough become little more tight when it comes to room temperature so take care).
Make small ball, keep in you palm and press over the dough by folding the finger so the thumb impression will come in the dough this is what they call pidi kozhukattai in tamil.
You can also make kozhukattia in ball shape. Keep the kozhukattai in idli plate
Heat the idli pan and steam the kozhukattai for 5 to 10 mins (it will become glossy/shiny when cooked). When pressed using finger it won't be sticky. Cool it
Serve this healthy snack to family and friends.
