    Banana Sugar Kozhukattai Recipe

    Kozhukkattai, கொழுகட்டை or Kozhukatta is a popular South Indian dumpling made from rice flour, with a filling of grated coconut, jaggery, or chakkavaratti. Kozhukattai, although usually sweet, can sometimes be stuffed with a savory filling. Modak is a similar dish made in other parts of India. Kolukattai is made many different ways. I have shared a variety of kolukattai over the years.

    You can check my kolukattai archive for all recipes.

    This particular recipe has bananas added in it which makes it aromatic and sweet.

    How to Make Rice Flour At Home

    Wash rice in lots of water. Soak it for 2 hours. Drain it completely and spread it in a clean cloth and dry it under fan for 3 hours.

    Now take the rice in a blender and powder it finely. Use a fine sieve and sift the mix. After you sieve, if you get lots of coarse rice mix, powder it again and sieve it.

    Now heat a thick bottom kadai, add the powdered rice and roast it for 5 mins or so on a medium heat till the wetness dries off.

    Spread it on a clean paper to cool down. Store it in a air tight container.

    How to Store Rice Flour:

    1)You can store this powder in a air tight container for 1 month at room temp.

    2)If you are going to store this for longer time, you can store in fridge for 2 to 3 months.

    3)You can roast the rice flour little in a dry pan for longer storage.

    How to Grind Rice Flour:

    1) Grinding this in mixie is a pain, you have to keep on grinding it till you get fine powder. It will take lots of time. You can make this in bulk and give this to mill, this way it will be more finer and less fuss.

    2)If you grind the rice at home, you have to do it in batches. As you sieve the mix, you will get coarse rava like mix, add it to the next batch and keep grinding till you get fine flour.
