Samagni

An easy and yummy snack item.

Ingredients:

Rice flour : 1 cup

Water : 2 cups

Coconut oil : 1 tbsp

Mustard : 1 tsp

Urad dal : 1tsp

Chana dal : 1tsp

Curd chilly/Red chillies: 1 or 2

Curry leaves : few

Hing : ¼ tsp

Grated coconut: 1 tbsp (optional)

Salt to taste

Method:

Heat a teaspoon of coconut oil in a pan. Add one cup of water and salt and bring to boil. Mix the rice flour with a cup of water and add to the boiling water. Keep stirring continuously.

When the dough leaves the sides of the pan and forms a thick lump, remove from the stove.

Let the dough cool for 10 minutes. Smear a little oil in your palms and knead the dough. Take small quantities of the dough and make small lime-sized balls.

Place the rice balls in an idli tray and steam in a steamer or pressure cooker for 20 minutes. Allow to cool.

Heat a tsp of oil in a pan and crackle mustard, urad dal, chana dal and the curd chillies. When the mustard crackles, add hing and curry leaves. Add the steamed kozhukatais and stir for 5 minutes. Stir carefully or else the kozhukatais might break. Add freshly grated coconut. Turn off and serve and serve with coconut chutney. This is a healthy breakfast/snack item as it is steamed.
