Ingredients:

Recipe :

  • Step 1 Grind rice into a smooth batter

    Grind the rice which was soaked overnight into a smooth batter. You can add some water to make the batter smoother.

  • Step 2 Melt jaggery

    Now heat a heavy-bottomed pan, add jaggery and let it melt. Once melted, add cardamom powder, freshly grated coconut and stir a bit.

  • Step 3 Mix melted jaggery with rice batter

    Now mix jaggery-coconut mixture with rice batter and mix well to create a thick batter.

  • Step 4 Make small dumplings

    Now grease a appe pan with oil and pour the batter into the moulds. You can also use a tawa for the same, but it won't give you the required thickness of ​Pakundalu​. So, it is better to use appe pan.

  • Step 5 Cook and serve

    Cook from both sides until golden brown and serve hot.
