UPPUMA KOZUKATTAI/UNDRALU


I love this uppuma kozukattai. In Telugu it is called UNDRALU.
This is Ganesha's favorite. My aunty used to tell on amavasya day
offering kozukattai or undralu to ganesha will remove hurdles and
we can get rid off our loans.

INGREDIENTS

For this v need the following items:
rice rava - 1 cup
seasoning items,
curry leaf, salt to taste
water- 2 cups , oil 1 spoon,asafoetida

FOR RICE RAVA : Normally i wont soak the rice. I just grind raw rice along
with 2 spoons of tuvardal, pepper and jeera. The rice rawa is ready



Method:

1. Take a kadai pour oil and make vagar with mustard seeds and
add curry leafs and heeng (asafoetida)pour the water, add salt and
allow it to boil (cover it with a lid so that it will boil soon)

2. Once water starts boiling add the rice rava into it and stir well.
cover it for few minutes and cook. Now the upma is ready.

3. Now we have to make the kozukattai. Touching little water in
the hand make the upma into an egg shape. Once u r done
steam them in the cooker (like we do for idli).

Now the upma kozukattai/ Undralu is ready to serve.

Serve it with coconut chutney.


Note: Some like to add grated coconut. If u wish to add coconut
add it while the water is boiling.
