Paal Kozhukattai

Ingretiends:

  • Rice flour - 1 cup
  • Coconut - 1/4 cup
  • Jaggery - 3/4 cup
  • Green gram dhal - 1/2 cup
  • Milk - 2 cup
  • Elachi - 2
  • salt - 1 tsp
Method:

Cook the green gram dhal (Paasi paruppu ) well in water. Mash it well.
Run the coconut coarsely in mixe. Take a bowl and mix the flour, salt and the coconut. Add little water as the coconut may have water content. Make a dough. Make small small kozhukattai like pills (Tablets).
Keep the dhal boiling, Pour the milk in it. Keep stirring. When it is boiling nicely drop the kozhukattai in it. Do not mix it as soon as you put as it may break the kozhukattai. After a minute leave a flat ladle preferably Dosa ladle do not stir or sauté scrape the vessel from the bottom so that you don't disturb the kozhukattai. 
Now grate the jaggery or break them into small pieces and mix it inside the boiling dal milk and kozhukattai.
Season with elachi powder.

Note: If you feel that there may be dust and sand in jaggery, Crush the jaggery and heat it with little water (say less than 1/4 glass). When the jaggery dissolves leave it to settle and filter and pour it into the kozhukattai. Instead of milk if you add coconut milk the taste will be really yummy.
