    About Sweet Ammini Kozhukattai

    Ammini Kozhukattai, also known as Mini Kozhukattai or Mani Kozhukattai, is a light and healthy snack made from rice flour. Kozhukkattai, also known as kozhukatta, is a popular South Indian dumpling made from rice flour and filled with grated coconut,
    jaggery, or chakkavaratti. Kozhukattai, while typically sweet, can occasionally be stuffed with a savoury filling. Kerala Christians prepare it on the Saturday before Palm Sunday, hence the name Kozhukatta Saturday.

    Modak is a similar dish that is prepared in other parts of India. This is a popular dish for the Ganesh Chaturthi festival.

     

    Ingredients for Sweet Ammini Kozhukattai Recipe

    For Dough:

    • Rice Flour / Arisi Mavu - 1 cup
    • Salt - ½ tsp
    • Water - 1 ¾ cup

    Rice Flour / Arisi Mavu:

    Rice flour is a type of flour that is made from finely ground rice. It differs from rice starch, which is typically made by steeping rice in lye. Rice flour is a popular wheat flour substitute.

    Fresh Coconut :

    Fresh coconut meat tastes tropical, nutty, and slightly sweet. It has a strong flavour, particularly when dried. When coconut is roasted, it takes on a woodier flavour with hints of vanilla. Fruit, water, and milk are all popular and highly valued for their fresh, sweet, and refreshing qualities.

    Jaggery / Sarkarai / Vellam  :

    Depending on its composition, jaggery can taste like fresh cane juice, maple syrup, caramel, or molasses. The unrefined natural sweetener is available in a variety of colours, including light amber, golden brown, and dark brown. Jaggery is known by many different names, including gur in Urdu, gud in Hindi, and vellam in Tamil.
