Karadaiyaa Nombu Vellam Adai (sweet one)!

Not sure as to whether this is the traditional way of making it or shortcut.. nevertheless, it turned out fool proof atleast..! :D it came out really really well sterday.. thot of penning the recipe..

to put it less complicated: ingredients are 1:1:1:: jaggery: riceflour: water (if u have a sweet tooth this will satisfy u, else for diabetic & those having sweet in less amt, can make jaggery 3/4th measure) btw for novices like me, 1 jaggery doesnt mean 1 ball of jaggery, its chopped/ thuruvina jaggery measuring 1 tumbler or watever measure u are using...

apart from this, elachi (powdered), cut pieces of coconut (Avoid if u r cholestrol conscious), baked karamani (well i didnt have karamani, so i put cooked green gram pulse aka paccha payir)

all u need to do is:

pour the water in saucepan, add jaggery and wait till all the jaggery melts.. then, if u wanna strain and filter the jaggery from mud and sand particles u may do so, or simply proceed. once it is slightly starting to boil add rice flour to it. and nicely mix it. it will be a test for your triceps man! :D

after that all u need to do is, make it into small vadais with yr hand, or just make a ball and flatten it with yr palm (like cutlets) and keep it on greased idli thattu (with ghee and not gingely oil), and keep it in cooker for 8-10 minutes without whistle...

thats all.. suda suda vella-adai ready... ideally have it with soft butter.. yummmm....
