Suzhiyam (Sweet stuffed balls)

Suzhiyam - Preparation time 15 mins if pooranam stuffing is available

This is an easy to make recipe if you have pooranam made from thenkai, vellam and kadalai paruppu. Usually all used to make using maida flour coating but i want this sweet to be gluten free so tried using bengal gram and rice flours. It tasted good and health too (exclude the deep frying part :-)))

Actually while you make poli or pooram stuffed kozhukattai you can preserve some of the pooranam to make this dish. I used to keep some pooram so i can make this sweet.

Ingredients:-

Pooranam - 1 cup. (Refer making of pooranam)

Bengal gram flour (Kadalai maavu) - 2 tbsp

Rice flour (aarisi maavu) - 1 tbsp

Salt - a pinch

Water - to make the binding flour

Oil - to deep fry

Preparation method:-

Make goose berry size balls from the pooranam (refer making of pooranam in vellam pooranam kozhukattai recipe) and keep in a plate.

Heat the kadai with oil to deep fry the suzhiyam

In a bowl add bengal gram flour, rice flour, salt and water

Mix well the dough should be slightly thick so that if you dip the pooranam balls in the dough it should be coated over the ball evenly and not too thick

When the oil is hot dip the pooranam balls in the dough and carefully drop in the hot oil. 

Cook in medium flame so that the suzhiyam is evenly cooked. As pooranam is made using cooked content the outer coating alone is to be cooked which will take only few mins.

This will be tasty and quick recipe provide you have the vellam pooranam handy.
