Kunukku
Kunukku
I love this one snack my mother makes. It’s easy to make and delicious to eat.
Ingredients:
Curry leaves(Karuveppilai) – 6 or 7
Salt(Uppu) – to taste
Procedure:
2. Grind them with asafoetida and salt adding very little water to a fine batter. Add the curry leaves to the
batter and mix.
3. Take a palm of the batter, push it with the back of the thumb one by one in oil and deep fry.
Kunukku is an easy-to-make snack and needs no accompaniments. The raw rice makes it crisp outside and
the dals together give a soft bite. This is made during navarathri to break the monotony of sundals.
