Karunjikai Recipe


For the stuffing (Pooranam)
Coconut
¾ cup
Vellam / Jaggery (According to taste)
¼ cup
Cardamom
Few pods
Pottukadalai / Fried Gram (dry roast)
one hand full

For the crust
All Purpose flour
11/2 Cups
Baking Soda
1 Tsp
Ghee
1Tbsp

The ingredients proportion might differ as I just eyeballed it when I tried the recipe.
  • Knead the dough for the crust and keep it covered for a while.
  • Dry roast the pottukadalai until golden brown. Once it cools down powder it into a fine powder.
  • Prepare the Pooranam (stuffing) as you would do for the modakam add the pottukadalai powder towards the end and mix it nicely. Allow it to cool down completely.
  • Make small oval shaped balls of the pooranam and keep it aside.
  • Now divide the dough into small portions and roll into small circles.
  • Keep the pooranam in one half of the circle and cover it with the other half, Pinch the edges and fold to get a nice shape. If you can get the mold it is very easy.
  • I baked it at 350o for 20 minutes or until golden brown. Check in-between as usually the oven heat differs.
Hope you all enjoy this “Happy Cooking”.
