Follow these simple instructions before frying your balls.

1. When you fry the balls, the oil needs to be hot. Don't heat the oil on high flame. It should heat up slowly. If you heat the oil too fast, then your balls will turn black.
2. The best part of these fried items are the dusting, coating and breading. After preparing the balls roll it lightly in the flour and shake off the excess flour and dip it in the liquid coating. Always roll the balls lightly in the flour because heavy coating will not stick properly. Then dust the balls with the bread crumbs or powdered rusk.
3. You can refrigerate the balls for an hour and then you can fry them. Next, you have to fry these balls slowly and carefully. Please do not overcrowd the balls while frying. Make sure the balls are not touching each other. Lastly, drop the balls in a piece of paper towel.
4. If the oil becomes too hot and the balls are turning black then switch off the flame and change the oil.

Ridge gourd kootu - one of my favourite kootu dish for lunch. Naturally ridge gourd has a soft texture which is suitable for kootu dishes.

Seppankizhangu Poriyal - this poriyal is prepared with taro root, chilly powder, small onions cumin garlic paste and perfectly roasted in an iron kadai.

Wheat Rava Kichadi With Vegetables - Samba Godhuma Rava Kichadi - Healthy Breakfast

A healthy diabetic friendly kichadi recipe made with wheat rava. You can start your breakfast with a cup of this healthy kichadi as it includes carrot, green peas and beans which blend together beautifully with wheat rava. A handful of fresh green peas gives a slightly sweet taste for the kichadi. There are two main varieties of wheat rava - medium coarse and fine coarse. Fine coarse wheat rava is my favourite for kichadi and upma dishes. Medium coarse wheat rava is perfect for sweet pongal and payasam. Both types require more time to cook when compared to regular white rava. Fine coarse wheat rava doesn't need to be roasted for this kichadi. To cook 1 cup fine coarse wheat rava you will need 3 cups of water. After preparing the kichadi you should let it stand for 15 minutes, covered and undisturbed for a perfect fluffy texture. And once you find how to cook wheat rava perfectly, you will be making it regularly for your breakfast. Check out my other tiffin recipes here Idli Black
