Javvarisi Vadam
Ingredients:
Javvarisi (Sago) – 2 cups
Rice flour – 2 tablespoons
Green Chillies – 4 Nos
Asafotida Powder – ½ teaspoon
Salt – 1 teaspoon or as per taste
Lemon juice – 1 tablespoon
Water – 6 cups
Rice flour – 2 tablespoons
Green Chillies – 4 Nos
Asafotida Powder – ½ teaspoon
Salt – 1 teaspoon or as per taste
Lemon juice – 1 tablespoon
Water – 6 cups
Method:
Soak javvarisi for about 6 to 8 hours or over night.
Next day morning you can make the koozh.
Grind green chillies and salt to a fine paste.
Put a thick bottomed vessel on the stove and pour the water and bring to boil. When it starts boiling, add the soaked javvarisi and stir well. Mix the rice flour in little water and make a thin batter and add to the javvarisi along with ground green chilli paste. Add lemon juice also and stir continuously till the javvarisi is transparent.
The Koozh should be of pouring consistency. If it is too thick, then add enough hot water to make it loose. If it is too thin, just add little rice flour mixed with water and make it to a right pouring consistency.
Spread a clean plastic sheet in the terrace or backyard where you get sun light. Take out a small round spoon of this batter (use round size spoon) and pour it on the sheet. It will get spread round on its own. Finish all the batter like this.
Dry it for the whole day. When it is dried well, store it in a container.
Whenever you want, deep fry it in hot oil. Goes well with any type of rice items like sambar sadam, rasam sadam and variety rices.
