Ingredients:
1 small banana
1 cup of raw white rice
1/2 cup of jaggery
1/4 tsp of dry ginger
1/4 tsp of cardamom powder
Coconut cut into small and thin chips and fried in ghee
Water to soak the rice
Oil for deep frying
Method: Soak the rice in water overnight. Wash and drain excess water from the rice. In a saucepan melt the jaggery with just enough water. In a grinder, add the banana(cut into small pieces), melted jaggery and rice. Grind it into a paste. Remove it into a bowl and add the dry ginger, cardamom powder and coconut chips to it. Mix it well. The batter should be thick in consistency else you could add in some rice flour to adjust the same. Set aside for 2-3 hours. Heat the oil. Once hot, scoop out the batter and drop it into the oil. Fry it till it gets dark brown. Serve it hot or store it in a air tight container.
Notes: Do not add water while making the batter. You could adjust the consistency by adding melted jaggery or rice flour as required. Making the batter sit for 2-3 hours gives best results. You could choose to add a bit of baking soda too to make it light.
Happy Cooking!
