Dal Kozukottai
Dal Kozukottai Recipe
Ingredients
Tuvar dal - ½ cup
Jaggery powder - 1/3 cup
Cardamom powder - ¼ tsp
Grated coconut - ¼ cup
Method
Wash the dal and cook in plenty of water till it is just soft but
not mushy. ( avoid over
cooking )
Strain, mix with jaggery and mash to a coarse paste.
Mix in the grated coconut.
For Covering
Sift the rice flour to ensure that there are no lumps. Boil 4 cups
of water with 1 tsp salt
and 2 tsps of oil (preferably gingelly oil) remove from fire, add
2 cups of flour, stirring
the mixture well with a wooden stick or the handle of a wooden spoon
or churner, to
make a smooth lump. Continue to add more rice flour ½ cup
at a time and mix till you
have a smooth, soft ball which is not sticky.
To test, cool a small lump and see if it can be flattened easily
on the palm into a pliable
thin disc. If it is sticky, ad more flour. Cover the dough with
a wet cloth to prevent it
from drying while you prepare the filling.
