Exploring groundnut Thattai /chikkalu recipe with idly parboiled rice
Idli Parboiled rice which is necessary than raw rice for making thattai a Diwali snack recipe
All idli rice are parboiled rice, but all parboiled rice need not be idli rice hence make sure of it
Since groundnut has oil content it does not absorb water in the batter so making flat dough is quiet uneasy so my mom prefer making roasted gram dal thattai to this but this one is delicious hence revealing groundnut thattai which is also my favourite than the former one
✨ABOUT THE RECIPE:
▼INGREDIENTS:
Raw rice - 4 glass (the glass capacity is 150 ml)
Idli Parboiled rice - 4 glass
only used 600 ml of the whole batter
17 dried red chilli
12 garlic cloves
salt - 1 tsp
groundnut- 200 g
one litre oil
▼PROCEDURE:
Raw rice - 4 glass
Idli Parboiled rice 4 glass which is necessary than raw rice
All idli rice are parboiled rice, but all parboiled rice need not be idli rice hence make sure of it
Idli Parboiled rice is good for making thattai
rinse the rice and immerse in water
parboiled rice also called Puzhungal rice
soak in water for 6 hours
then i blended the paste through shop adding 1 glass of water
blend nicely like idly batter
look at the consistency
Raw rice - 4 glass the glass capacity is 150 ml
Idli Parboiled rice 4 glass which is necessary than raw rice
rinse the rice and immerse in water for 6 hours soak time
parboiled rice also called Puzhungal rice
then i blended the paste through shop adding 1 glass of water
previously i shared Roasted gram thattai here I use rest of the 600 ml almost 3 cups of batter gonna use it
Groundnut - 200 g roast for 4 min medium flame and turn off flame
dried red chilli - 17 and garlic - 12 clove
add chopped curry leaves and the grinded masala to it
usually people will use only raw rice but my mom will put both raw rice and idly parboiled rice
peel the skin and grind the groundnut leaving some for garnishing
add 1 tsp salt
mix well the dough until it absorbs nicely the mixture
pour some hot oil and knead well the dough batter until it absorbs
since groundnut has oil content, it do not absorb water from the batter as like roasted gram did hence soonly make the flat thattai
once the flat thattai came top of the oil drop another one in simmer then you fry in medium flame for 8 min
repeat the same for rest of the batter
Taste wise I would prefer the Groundnut one than the former but both came pretty well for me
