Adukka Orotti is a dish made with rice that is exclusive to Malabar. This pan-cooked flat bread is made with rice, egg and coconut milk and is both a satisfying breakfast and a great tea time snack for the people of Malabar.
Soaked Rice | 1 kg |
Eggs | 4 |
Coconut milk | 2 cups |
Ghee | |
Salt to taste |
Blend the soaked rice with eggs, coconut milk and salt to prepare the batter. Once the batter is ready, take a plate and grease it with ghee. Put the greased plate in a steamer, pour two ladles of batter into it and steam for 10 minutes. This forms the first layer. After 10 minutes, open the lid of the cooking vessel, and grease the cooked orotti with ghee. Now add a second layer of the batter. Steam again, for 10 minutes. Make as many layers by continuing this process until you have the thickness you desire.
Serve hot Adukka Orotti with chicken curry.
