Karthigai pori (puffed rice) urrundai




The karithigai pori can be made with either aval pori or nel pori. When we buy pori for karthigai it comes with lot of husk. And during karthigai month preparation starts early. We kids around the house help mom to clean up the pori.

Ingredients:

Pori - 5 cups
jaggrey - 1 cupdried
ginger(chukku) - a piece
coconut pieces - few.
water

Prepare the syrup by boiling 1/2 cup of water with jaggrey. The syrup should be thick. To check the consistency pour few drops of syrup and try to make a small ball out of it. If it’s still soft then you need to boil further until the ball formed makes a thud sound when you throw it on the kitchen counter. Once the syrup is ready quickly add the pori, dried ginger and coconut pieces. At this point you have to be quick mix all the ingredients and make small balls. Pori urundai is ready.
