Vazhakkai Kola Urundai/Raw banana Koftas

 

For the 4th week of Blogging Marathon #31 I chose meatless dishes and will be posting meatless dishes for next two days.
Today's recipe is kola urundai/kofta made with raw banana,usually these type of koftas are made with minced chicken or mutton which is popular in Southern parts of Tamilnadu .
For the vegetarian version instead of meat,raw banana,elephant yam or potato even beet root is used, rest of the ingredients remains same.
This can be either served as a snack or an accompaniment for sambar rice or variety rice also.Sometimes the fried balls are soaked in Masala kulambhu and served like the mutton kola urundai kulambhu.Now on to the recipe.................


Ingredients

Raw banana/vazhakkai 1(medium size)
Coconut(grated)1cup
Roasted gram dhal/pottukadalai1/4cup

Method

  • In a mixie jar add grated coconut,onions,red chillies,ginger,garlic,fennel,curry leaves,and salt.Pulse it without adding water.Once the mixture becomes coarse, sprinkle some water and grind it now add the grated raw banana and grind it to a smooth paste.


  • Transfer it to a plate now, add the powdered dhal,chopped coriander leaves to  the batter, mix it well.

  • Now make small balls out of the batter and keep it ready.Fry the balls in the oil in a medium flame till it becomes crisp and brown.Take out from the oil and drain it in a paper towel.

  • Serve it as a snack or accompaniment.


Enjoy...............................................


  •  If the batter becomes watery add little more pottukadalai powder or besan.
  • Green chillies or red chilly powder can be used.
  • Oil should be in a medium flame,if the oil not hot enough the balls may separate,too hot means it changes color without cooking inside.
  • Don't make the balls too big,a gooseberry size is good enough otherwise it won't cook properly or chances are there for disintegrating in the oil.

Vegetable Biriyani - Pressure Cooker Method

Coming to day 3 of Blogging Marathon#62 under the theme quick dishes I am sharing a one pot meal.This biriyani can be made in 30 minutes if the veggies are chopped and kept or even frozen veggies can also be used. As I have the habit of chopping veggies for the next day cooking this takes only 20-25 minutes of cooking.Also I use the boiling hot water to cook the rice faster.When the rice is cooking in the pressure cooker you can make either a simple raita or an egg omelette to pair up with this biriyani.                                                                                                                                  ...
