Notes:

  • Always keep the flame in low or medium while making rice flour mixture. It takes 10-15 mins but it is worthy doing it.
  • Make kozhukattai when its still warm. Do not let it open for a long time which will cause the mixture to get dry and ending up in hard kozhukattai. Try to cover with wet clothe until you prepare.
  • Adding coconut while grinding rice helps the kozhukattai to stay soft for long time and also gives a new flavor.
  • Adding sugar is completely optional. In my family we all love to have it with sugar.
