Kozhukatta (sweet dumplings of rice with coconut and jaggery)

Kozhukattas are made from rice flour but u surely can use wheat flour,ragi flour or all purpose flour instead.I think it tastes better when rice flour is used.

Ingredients;

Rice flour-2cups

Boiling water-11/2 cup

jaggery-3/4cup

grated coconut-1cup

cardamom powder-2tsp

crushed or powdered cumin-1tsp

salt as per taste.

Add the salt and cumin powder into the rice flour.Mix it well.Now add the boiling water stiring the flour. Knead this well.

For the filling Mix together the coconut,jaggery and cardamom powder.apply some oil on the hands.Take a small ball of the dough,flatten it with hands.Put a tbsp of the filling and cover it shaping it into balls.With this amt of flour u can make 11 to 12 kozhukattas.Steam it for 10 to 15 mins.

Serve hot or cold at breakfast or teatime!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
