Thattai - Crispy Snack with Rice Flour - Thattai with Rice Flour - Diwali Recipes

Thattai with rice flour - this thattai recipe is easy to make when compared to puzhungal arisi thattai. For Diwali I usually prepare puzhungal arisi thattai as they have nice crispy texture but it takes more time. Now a days many people don't prefer to spend hours and hours in the kitchen. There are plenty of quick, simple and tasty snacks you can make at home in less time. I will share quick 30 minute snack recipes one by one in virundhombal. You can replace the packed chips with these homemade snacks without any overused oils, artificial colours and flavours.

This thattai is made with rice flour, urad dal flour, fried grams flour and flavoured with red chillies, garlic, asafoetida and curry leaves. We have to roast the rice flour for a few minutes until it is warm to handle. Roasting the rice flour helps to form a slightly stiff dough and it is easy to shape the rounds. When adding water be careful because if the dough has become watery, it will be difficult to prepare the rounds. Also do not make a tight dough, then thattai will be hard. If you don't have time to grind red chillies you can replace it with crushed black pepper or red chilly powder.

Seppankizhangu Poriyal - this poriyal is prepared with taro root, chilly powder, small onions cumin garlic paste and perfectly roasted in an iron kadai. The best cooking method for this taro root poriyal is to cook the taro roots in an open vessel for 10 minutes on medium heat with a good amount of water.
