Ingredients:
Raw rice - 4 cups
White gram - half cup
Cumin seeds - 25 gm.
Asafetida powder - 2 tablespoons
Butter - 100 gm.
Table salt - to taste
Oil for frying
Method:
Wash and clean the rice well. Let it out to dry and once it has dried completely, powder it nicely, along with the white gram, Mix these two and add cumin seeds, asafetida powder, butter and salt, without adding water. Take a little of this mixture, add water to it to get a dough like consistency.
Heat oil in a kadai. Test how hot it is by dropping a pinch of dough into it - if it sinks, the oil hasn't become hot enough. If the dough springs to the top with bubbles all around it, then the oil is just ready.
Take some dough, put it in a thenkuzhal squeeze and pass through the strainer and into the hot oil. Fry golden brown.
Store in an air tight container.
