    ellai adai (kerala kugan)

    This is also a disappeared delicacy I believe.
    People think its troublesome to do.
    Its aroma will be so sweet, just out of the steamer.


    ELLAI ADAI

    Ingredients:
    1 cup raw rice
    1 cup brown sugar
    2 cups fresh scrapped coconut
    2 tbs of ghee
    A pinch of cardamom powder
    A pinch of salt
    10 banana leaf pieces cut into 6 7 inch squares

    Method:
    Soak the rice for about 4 hours.
    Then grind in a blender with just enough water, and pinch of salt
    to make a thick batter. Keep aside.

    In a heavy pan melt the brown sugar with 1 tbs of water.
    Stir in the coconut and cook for about 10 minutes on low heat.
    When the mixture thickens, add in the ghee and stir well.
    Remove from the stove and let it cool well.

    Toast the banana leaves one at a time over the flame.
    The leaves will become pliable.
    Spread a small ladle full of the batter over the toasted leaf.
    Place a tablespoon of the sweetened coconut over this.
    Spread the coconut evenly.
    Fold the banana leaf in the middle and press in the sides to close well.

    Bring water to boil in a idli steamer.
    Place the stuffed banana leaf flat inside.
    Steam for about 15 to 20 minutes.
    As it cooks the ellai adai absorbs the aroma of the toasted banana leaves. Remove them from the steamer, peel off the the banana leaf
    wrapper and serve.

    Aiyoo Kugan....I am so hungry after seeing the lovely adai. Its one of my favourites. My late aunty used to do it.

    I ate once another adai made out of sugi flour....and the filling is coconut+white sugar + cardomom powder. It was very tasty. But when I tried it out the taste was there but it was hard. The ones that aunt (fren) made was soft and it was white.

    Now I am wondering whether she had made the dough with both sugi/rice flours.. She didn't want to give the recipe....and she has since passed away. Her recipe is gone with her coz her children are not into our traditional cooking - very westernised in their way of life.

    Have you made it before? We must keep up with our old traditional recipes and shd not let it disappear.
