Vendhaya kali

Vendhaya kali is also called as menthulu sankati in Telugu. My mom makes it very often during summer and it is one of

my favorite dish. It is prepared as a breakfast or dinner at my home. Vendhaya kali is a very healthy dish because it

helps to cool our body especially during summer. Recently I got the recipe from my mom and tried it for the first time and

it came out well.

Ingredients:

1 cup Idly rice

2 tbsp Fenugreek seeds / Vendhayam / Menthulu

1 tbsp Sesame oil (as needed)

Salt as needed

1 1/2 cup - water

For jaggery syrup:

After grinding add additional 1 to 1 1/2 cups of water and enough salt to the batter and mix well without any

lumps. Consistency of batter should be little watery like appam flour.

3.

Heat a wide pan (preferably non stick pan), add ground batter and keep stirring so that no lumps are formed.

Keep the flame over medium heat.

4.

Continue stirring till the batter gets very thick consistency. Now reduce the flame to low and add a tablespoon of

sesame oil ( more if needed). Keep stirring so that it does not stick to the bottom of the pan and consistency

should be like a thick ball.

5.

In order to check whether it is done or not, dip your finger in a cold water and touch the batter, it should not stick

in your fingers. Healthy vendhaya kali / menthulu sankati is ready to serve. Make a big ball and pour jaggery

syrup over it, serve hot and enjoy.

6.

Notes:

Consistency of the jaggery syrup should not to be too thick or too thin.

Consistency of the kali should be like a thick ball.

Grind soaked rice and fenugreek seeds in batches because after grinding the batter will be double in quantity. In

order to avoid spilling and save time, grind batter in batches.

You can always replace palm jaggery with our regular jaggery.
