If you are bored of the usual pakodas and want to try your hands on South Indian Karnataka snack then here’s how to go for it.
Ingredients:
- 2 cups of rice
- 4 tbsp of butter
- Milk, as required to make dough
- Salt to taste
- Cooking Oil
Method:
- Wash rice and spread them on a cloth until they dry completely.
- Once the rice are dry, grind them to fine powder.
- Knead the rice flour with butter, salt and milk into soft dough.
- Take small portions of dough; roll then on your palms into long string like shapes over 2 to 3 inches long.
- Now make both the ends meet to form loops.
- Press and join the ends so that they stick together and don’t open up when frying.
- Prepare such loops and make batches.
- Heat oil in a pan for deep frying.
- And fry the first batch in low flame, stirring continuously till the loops turn crisp and golden brown.
- Drain excess oil in the loops by placing them on a paper towel.
- Repeat the procedure for rest of the batches.
- Let them cool.
These crispy loops are now ready for snacking and can be stored in an air tight container for almost week’s time.
Once you get comfortable with cooking these loops, you can also get creative with its ingredients and shapes.
