Karthigai kozhukattai recipe with step by step pictures. A special edible lamp kozhukattai made with rice flour especially for Karthigai deepam.

Gemerally we use this method for making simple kozhukattai. Karthigai kozhukattai recipe is nothing but our regular kozhukattai shaped as karthigai vizhakku.So its edible lamps kozhukattai made with rice flour. I saw these cute edible lamps in our neighbours house and when I enquired they said its made with homemade rice flour without salt and its a custom for them to make these every karthigai deepam. So I made up mind to try it too and here it is 🙂

About karthigai kozhukattai recipe:

This is a very simple kozhukattai made with rice flour just like how we make our regular kozhukattai. The main difference is that its shaped as karthigai lamp. There is no much difference in taste also except that the burnt edges are more tastier.

You can involve older kids in making this especially the shaping part as they will enjoy doing it. You can make this kozhukattai for evening snacks too however this lamp shaped karthigai kozhukattai we make particularly for karthigai deepam.

 

Variations :

  • I used readymade idiyappam flour, you can use homemade flour too.
  • In addition you can add coconut bits in the dough for extra crunch.
  • You can replace idiyappam flour with ragi flour or any millet flour too.

Storing and Serving Suggestions:

  • Light up the lamps, keep this special karthigai kozhukattai for neiveidhyam. Cool down completely then you can serve it as such.
  • I wouldnt suggest to store this, make it fresh and finish it off within a day.
