Ellu Kozhukattai

Ellu Kozhukattai is like the same process done for Mothagam, only difference is the stuffing and the shape, this is flat half moon shape as shown in the picture.


Ingredients for Stuffing
1/4 cup Sesame seeds(I used white, but black can also fine)
1/4 cup Jaggery
1/4 teaspoon Cardamon Powder

Method

  • Prepare the dough as shown in Dough preparation.
  • Fry the sesame seeds in a dry pan, fry till it splutters, and grind into fine powder without adding water.
  • To this powder add the jaggery and cardamon powder.
  • Grind well and make small balls (some time it will not be possible to make balls, just take a teaspoon full of stuffing).
  • Grease your palm with oil and keep the dough and flatten it into round shape and keep the sesame ball in middle and close it and tighten the border of the dough with your fingers or with a fork. there shouldn't be any gaps. Seal it tightly.
  • Keep these prepared kozhukattais in the greased idli plate and steam cook for 5 mins or till it is cooked.
  • Ellu Kozhukattai is ready.
