This kozhukattai is made with Oats, coconut gratings and garnished with other spices like idli milagai podi

Ingredients

  • Oats – 1 cup

  • Rice flour – 1 cup

  • Coconut gratings – 1/2 cup

  • Salt – 1/2 teaspoon or as per taste

  • For seasoning:
  • Oil – 2 teaspoons

  • Mustard – 1/2 teaspoon

  • Bengal gram dhal – 1 teaspoon

  • Onion chopped – one to two tablespoons

  • Curry Leaves – few

  • Pepper powder – 1/2 teaspoon

  • Idli Milagai Podi – 1 teaspoon

Directions

  • Grind the oats to a fine powder and mix with rice flour. Add salt and coconut gratings. Bring two cups of water to boil and add little by little to the flour and make a soft dough (like chapati dough). Make lemon size balls and keep it aside.
  • In a thick bottomed vessel pour enough water (say about 5 to 6 cups) and bring to boil. When it starts boiling, gently drop 3 to 4 balls. Reduce to heat to medium. Allow to cook for two minutes.
    Then add another 4 balls. Repeat this till you finish all the balls.
    Gently stir using a flat spoon.
    Allow to cook in low heat for five to ten minutes.
    You can also check one ball with a spoon whether it is cooked well in the middle also.
    Remove from stove and take out all the balls from the water.
  • Put a kadai on the stove and add oil. When it is hot, add mustard seeds. When it pops up add bengal gram dhal and fry till it turns light brown.
  • Then add chopped onion and curry leaves and fry for a while.
  • Then add the cooked balls and sprinkle the pepper powder and Idli Milagai Podi and mix well.
  • Remove from stove and serve as evening snack.
