WYF:Party Food event roundup

Thanks all of you for your participation in the event. Of late, I have been held up with some personal work and so not able to post regularly on the blog. Extremely sorry for the delay in posting this roundup. Due to slow internet connection, I am unable to upload the pictures. The entries are in the order I received them..


Raaji from Raaji’s Kitchen: Broccoli65 , Kofta Balls and Gobi Manchuria



Moong-roasted dal-rava ladoo


Ingredients

1/2 cup whole moong(green gram)
1 cup roasted rava
1/2 cup roasted dal (pottukadalai)
2 cups sugar
1/2 to 3/4 cup Ghee
1 tsp cardamom powder
Few roasted nuts and raisins

Roast the whole moong in a dry pan to get rid of the raw smell. Grind it to a fine powder in the mill. Grind the sugar, roasted dal and rava finely. Add roasted nuts, raisins, cardamom powder and required ghee to it to be able to make balls.

Mix well and make ladoos of it.

Stays good for 3-4 days. Milk can be substituted for ghee but the shelf life would be just 2 days.

Adirsam


Ingredients

1 cup Raw rice
1 cup Jaggery
1 tsp cardamom powder
Oil to fry

Soak the raw rice for 1 1/2 hours and drain out the water completely. Grind the slightly wet rice to a smooth powder in the mixer and sieve it twice to remove unfine particles.

Add a little water to the jaggery and allow it to boil. The required consistency is such that when a drop of the jaggery syrup is put into a plate of water, it should be easily formed into a soft ball with fingers. At this stage, add the cardamom powder and the rice flour slowly into the syrup. Mix well and allow it to cool for 10 minutes.

Make equal medium sized balls of the mixture and pat it on a greased plastic sheet to form a thick poori.

Slowly put it into hot oil and cook till it turns dark brown on both sides in medium flame. Use two big spoons with holes to remove the excess oil. Repeat for rest of the balls.

Cool and store in an air-tight containter. Stays good for 5-6 days.
