Godhumai paal kozhukattai recipe – This is a twist to the traditional paal kozhukattai recipe by replacing rice flour with wheat flour.I got this idea last week when I was thinking of posting Vinayaka chaturthi recipes so immediately got into action 🙂 And here is the recipe for godhumai paal kozhukattai with step by step pictures.

Also I always wanted to make paal kozhukattai shaped as small cylinders as amma says that is the way it is made traditionally so tried this godhumai kozhukattai this way and it looked cute too isnt it?!

Godhumai paal kozhukattai recipe

Ingredients

1/4 cup heaped wheat flour
1 tbsp grated coconut
salt to taste

For the sauce:

1/2 cup water
1/4 cup milk
1/2 cup milk
2 tbsp coconut milk
3 tbsp jaggery syrup
a tiny pinch cardamom powder

Instructions

Ina mixing bowl - take wheat flour,add coconut and salt.
Add water little by little to make a stiff dough.Now make tiny cylinder shapes as shown in the pictures.
Make until the entire dough finishes.Set aside.Now in a pan add water and milk.
Let it boil, when it boils vigorously with bubbles add the wheat balls.Let it cook atleast for 3-4mins in medium flame.
Once it becomes soft add remaining milk and cook until the mixture becomes creamy.Simmer and cook.
Now add coconut milk.
Finally add jaggery syrup mix well, garnish with cardamom powder and switch off.

Recipe Notes

While making the dough, make sure to make a stiff dough.If the dough is sticky then while cooking it may stick to each other.
As I made just 1/4 cup I arranged them in a bowl, as it ook very less time to finish the entire dough.But if you are making in bulk and will take time then arrange in a plate without sticking to each other.
Do not boil or cook for a long time after coconut milk and jaggery syrup is added, it may split up.
If you are scared to add jaggery syrup you can replace it with cane sugar too.
