Minapa sunnundalu
Background
Minapa sunnundalu is a traditional south Indian sweet dish prepared on festive occasions. This dish is simple to prepare and can be stored in an airtight container for at least 2 weeks.
Ingredients
- 1 cup black gram lentil (without husk)
- 1 Tbsp raw rice
- 1½ cup jaggery grated
- ½ cup ghee or clarified butter
Instructions
- Dry roast raw rice and black gram separately on a low flame till brown or till you get nice aroma which could take around 15 minutes. Keep stirring while dry roasting, lest it burns.
- Remove from the flame and allow it to cool.
- Ground both raw rice and black gram to a fine powder and keep aside.
- Mix the powder with the grated jaggery in a wide plate.
- Slowly add hot ghee and keep mixing with hand till the mix holds together. The ghee should be just enough to hold the powders together and not drip while making balls.
