Ingredients:
To make the flour
For the dish
Dry roast both the dhal separately. Grind in machine to a very nice powder. When cooled sieve and store in an air tight container.
To make Aadi kummayam
Heat the karupatti with 1/4 cup of water just till it dissolves and start to boil.
Take 1 cup of the flour. In a hard bottomed vessel (Cooker pan suits better) heat the oil and add the flour and keep stirring with a wooden spatula well. Do not let lumps to be formed.
Mean while heat the 3 cups of water.
When bubbles start coming in the flour add the karupatti filtering it for sand and dust. Keep stirring continuously and add the hot water all at once. Stir well. Small lumps may form but when u stir they break and dissolve. Add the ghee at last. serve it hot or you can spread it in a plate and cut it into pieces.
Note: Karupatti is not same as Jaggery. Karupatti will be dark in color and little harder. You can get it in Nilgiris or in Nattu Marundhu Kadai. There is another way of preparing this, you will have to dissolve the flour in water and also the karupatti liquid and then heat and boil it but it will be a bit painstaking job and will be full of lumps if u miss a stir. The method i have given will be much easy and more softer as the flour is first cooked in the oil. For even better taste you can replace the oil with ghee itself.
This is a very healthy dish for kids as it contains urudh dhal as its main ingredient. Especially for young girls as it helps in strengthening the bones
