Fried Coconut Puli

Ingredients

  • Grated coconut (2 cups)
  • Sugar (1 cup)
  • Rice flour (1.5 cups)
  • Salt (to taste)
  • Oil (for frying)
  • Cardamom (3)
  • Cinnamon (2 sticks)
  • Bay leaf (1)

Method

  1. First, cook the grated coconut with the sugar, cardamom, cinnamon, and bay leaf until the coconut is nicely fried. Remove from the heat and let it cool.
  2. In a pot, combine the rice flour with 1 tablespoon of oil and enough water to make a dough. Roll the dough out thin like flatbread and cut it into small round pieces. Place coconut filling in the center of each round, fold the two edges together to close it, and seal the edges by pressing with a fork.
  3. Finally, deep-fry until golden and serve hot.
