SINHALA AVURUDU TIMELESS RECIPES ON GOLDFM! ☀️

Athirasa

Ingredients

Rice Flour - 500g
Sugar - 300g
Fennel Seeds - 25g
Salt - 02 tsp
Kappi (Cracked Rice)
All purpose flour
Coconut honey (Optional)
Oil for deep frying

Method.

First of all it needs to prepare Kappi. For that put cracked rice into a frying pan and fry until it becomes light brown.
Fry fennel seeds around 01 min and grind it well.
Then, put small amount of sugar in to a pan and let it melt under medium heat while stirring continuously.
When sugar is melted well and becomes dark brown add one cup of hot water.
Then add remaining sugar and stir well to combine.
Add salt and mix well.
Cook this sugar syrup under medium heat until it becomes to the right level. Get a small amount from this sugar syrup to a spoon and pour it down. If it is pouring down like a thick line the sugar mixture has come to the right level.
Get a half cup of sugar syrup to a cup and keep it aside. This can be used when adding flour.
Add coconut honey and mix well. Switch off the flame after around 01 min.
Add fennel seeds, cracked rice and mix well.
Add rice flour little by little and mix. Here, don’t add all rice flour at once. If you do so, it will be difficult to mix this properly.
Add all purpose flour and mix.
After adding all flour touch this mixture from your fingers. If this mixture doesn’t stick to your fingers the mixture has come to the right level.
Apply some oil in a board or a try and transfer the flour mixture into this board.
Then put small amount of this mixture to your pan and put water. Mix this with leftovers and cook until it becomes like a thick paste.
Put this thick liquid into your flour mixture and mix thoroughly until this becomes smooth and nice.
Wet your hands with little bit of coconut oil and then start making kawum.
First, prepare small balls and keep them aside.
Then, press these balls and make shapes like biscuits.
Heat oil and put prepared kawum one by one.
After putting one kawum, wait until it comes up to put the next one. If not your kawum will stick each other.
Once kawum becomes golden brown get it out from oil and keep on a net or a tissue paper.
Do the same for the rest of your mixture.
When you store your prepared kawum place a dish or a small cup at the bottom of you container and store kawum around that. We do this because Athirasa has more oil than other kawum. If you just store them the kawum which are in the bottom of the container will absorb more oil.

Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes

Equipment

* Oval pan

Ingredients

175 g White sugar
150 g Thick coconut milk (40g coconut milk powder+150g water)
200 g White rice flour ( reserve 50 for dusting)
10 numbers Cashews ( roasted)
8-10 pods Cardamom pods
1 Tbsp Sesame seeds

Instructions

Step 1 ( Cardomom pods)
* In a mortar pestle, crush the cardamom pods slightly, take off the outer shell and put the seeds inside back into the mortar pestle and grind until crushed well like a powder
* Mix 10g sugar from the sugar quantity mentioned in the recipe and mix together. keep the mix aside
Step 2 ( Cashews)
* Into the same mortar pestle adds the cashew nuts and crush them until it breaks down into little pieces. (if you wish you can also chop the cashews up with a knife as well)
Step 3 (Roasting Rice flour)
* In a medium metal oval wok ( thachchiya) roast the rice flour for about 8-10 minutes in a low to medium fire. Take it off the fire when done.
Be very careful when roasting the rice flour, you don't want to burn it but slightly roast it.
once roasted, sieve the roasted rice flour
* From the roasted rice flour mixture weigh 50g rice flour onto another bowl and leave aside (This is to dust on the aluwa)
Step 4 ( Making the Aluwa)
* Into the same pan add coconut milk and sugar and leave it on a medium fire for about 6-8 minutes. Make sure the mixture turns into syrup. Check the article above for the correct consistency.
If this step is not done properly this will affect the overall dish. Check the article above on how to do it properly.
* When the mixture is halfway done, add the cardamom and sugar mixture and the sesame seeds. Once the syrup reached the correct consistency turn off the fire add the rice flour in batches slowly. once one part is added, stir it well until incorporated, when fully mixed then add the other part.
depending on the rice flour brand used and the thickness of the syrup, the flour needed will be dependant.
The texture of the mix should be thick and you will feel, the mixture is about to set.
Although the recipe calls for a specific quantity of flour, you might need less or more, if you need more use it from the reserved roasted rice flour that was kept aside. But if you do this correctly and use the same brand of rice flour as I have used, then you will only need the quantity specified in the recipe.
Step 5 ( Shaping and cutting the aluwa)
* Dust a good amount of rice flour that was kept aside onto a chopping board ( you can do this step, while the syrup is on the fire)
* Pour the aluwa mixture on to the chopping board, shape it into a square shape using a spatula or a dough scraper
(Apply coconut oil to the spatula or dough scraper so the mixture doesn't stick)
* Dust some of the reserved roasted rice flour on top of the aluwa, quickly cut the sides and cut into square equal pieces using a knife
You will need to scrape the parts that are stuck on the knife using a dough scraper
(If by any chance you had to use the reserved rice flour that was kept for dusting, then just use unroasted rice flour straight from the packet)
* Once cut dust the reserved roasted rice flour onto all the sides of the square pieces.
* Leave to cool down completely and store it until needed

Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 5 minutes
Total Time: 15 minutes

Calories:

Servings:-6† people

Equipment

* Kokis mould
* Deep frying pan
Ingredients
60 g Rice flour
40 g All- Purpose flour
1/4 tsp Turmeric powder
1/4 tsp Salt
1 tbsp Sugar

* Add the coconut milk little by little mixing with your hand or a whisk until the desired consistency is achieved ( check the article above to check how to make coconut milk with coconut milk powder)
Please note the amount of coconut milk needed will vary, so it is important to mix little by little. If the rice flour is home-made, you might need less coconut milk as there can be too much moisture in the flour it self. Check the article above for consistency.
* The mixture should be lump-free. smooth consistency. If you still have a bit of lump in the mixture, then strain the whole mixture through a fine sieve, this way you can get a creamy smooth mixture.
* Leave the mixture overnight at room temperature to settle down. If using fresh coconut milk, then leave only for 4 hours.
* The next day prior to using the mixture, Mix it well, DO NOT add any water or coconut milk if the mixture has got thicken, just mix it well.
* Heat a deep pot of oil on low to medium fire, have all the equipment necessary prior to starting the process
* Once the oil is heated, season your mould in hot oil ( even if you are using a non-stick mould), pass it through a dry kitchen towel, then plunge it into the kokis batter, shake it off a little bit ( this is to prevent it from having bubbles when fried) then quickly plunge it into the hot oil.
Once the kokis are slightly hard shake the mould up and down while inside the hot oil to remove the kokis from the mould, so the kokis fall off the mould easily- fry it in low to medium heat for about 3-4 minutes until cooked, and crispy.
Please see the above tips and tricks on how to fry perfect kokis.
* Drain the cooked kokis on a paper towel, when draining the kokis, make sure to place the kokis that have an open surface downwards, so the oil can drain
* Repeat the process for the rest of the batter ( this quantity would make approximately 15-16 kokis)
