Directions For Making Kozhukatta

For Filling

1. Melt the jaggery with 1/4 cup of water and strain it.
2. Add the coconut to the filtered jaggery & mix well. Add ghee and cook till the liquid is dried up. Add crushed cardamom and remove it from the fire. Keep it aside.

For the Dough

2. Keep it aside for 5 minutes or till it is warm enough to handle. 
3. Knead the dough and make it into a softball. 
4. The consistency of the dough should be the same as that of Idiyappam dough and also the dough should not be sticky.
5. Make medium size balls out of the dough. 
6. Take one ball at a time and place it in your palm. 
7. Press it with the other hand and make it thin. 
8. Start folding it inwards in such a way that you get a cup shape (please refer to the pic given below). 
9. Place 1-2 tsp of the filling, cover it and roll it back into a ball. 
10. Repeat the process with the rest of the dough and filling.
11. Steam the kozhukattas in appachembu/steamer for 9-10 minutes on medium flame.
