ulunthu kali
ulunthu kali


This is the healthy food suggest by our grand mother for women and especially for the young girl those who entered into there adulthood.
Ingredients:
Black urad dhal(splited)
½ cup
Raw rice/pacharisi
¼ cup
Fenugreek seed
¼ tea spoon
Black jaggery/brown sugar/karupatti
1 cup (or more, grated)
Gingelly oil/ghee
4 table spoon
Water
4 cup

How to prepare ulunthu kali:
  • Grind the Black urad dhal, raw rice and fenugreek seed together into fine powder.
  • Dissolve the brown sugar in one cup of water and filter it. (The water may be at room temperature or warm)
  • Now add the remaining 3 cups of water with this jaggery water. Add the grinded powder little by little with the water and dissolve with hand without any lumps.
  • In a pan add the gingelly oil/ghee and add the above dissolved mixture and stir it continuously till it reaches the semi-solid state.

Tips:
  • This will absorb the sweetness so add more karupatti according to your taste.
  • You can also add the jaggery instead of karupatti, but it wont give the taste of kali as our grandma prepared for as.
