Notes

1. Do not over steam this kozhukattais as it will turn hard and chewy.
2. Instead of Idli Milagai Podi you can add redchilli powder while kneading the dough and make balls. the rest of the procedure is same.
3. You can add pepper powder to the seasoning and make it as pepper ammini kozhukattai.
4. Thengai molagapodi can be added and in that case, you can skip the coconut.
5. Alternatively while tempering mustard seeds chopped green chilies or red chilies can be added to give spicyness to the ammini kozhukattais.

Method with step-by-step pictures :

  • Boil the water by adding salt and sesame oil to it.
  • Keep the rice flour|idiyappam flour in a wide bowl.
  • When the water comes to a rolling boil,slowly add the water to the flour.
  • Normally for idiyappam flour, it will take 1 and 1/4 cups of water for 1 cup of flour. But for store-bought rice flour, it will be a little less.
  • Just mix with a spoon while adding water.
  • This should be of a smooth dough consistency.
  • When it is warm knead it with your hands and add a tsp of sesame oil if you want.
  • Cover with a moist cloth to avoid dryness.
