Hi Kugan,
This is the authentic recipe!
Ingredients:

Sooji / Rava - 1 cup

Grated coconut - 1 cup

Sugar - 1 3/4 cup or 2 cups if you want it to be sweeter

Ghee - 2 tablespoon

Powdered Cardamom - 2tsp

Method :

Grease a plate.

Slightly roast grated coconut and rava separately till i tbecomes slightly golden

In a thick bottomed vessel add the sugar and just enough water to cover the sugar.

Heat the mixture on high until it starts boiling.Reduce the heat and allow it to cook till you get one string consistency.

Now add the coconut and rava and keep on stirring for every 2 minutes on medium heat.

Once when the mixture starts leaving the pan,add the cardamom powder and 2 tablespoon of ghee.

Transfer the contents into the greased plate,level it with a flat bottomed cup and allow it to cool for 5 minutes.

Cut into desired shapes

Kugan,
Forgot to add on my prev post..i tried ur vegetable chalna..it was a super duper hit!i i didnt have coconut milk..so i made a coconut paste and diluted it with water,because i was sooo lazy;-)
Yumm..it was totally different from the usual boring kurmas..i paired it with store bought layered parotta

Kuganka, super recipe ungal tofu omelette. Tried and it came out super yummy.
My husband gave me a tip to pour little soy sauce around the omelette before removing .
It tasted just like how we make omelette with eggs.
Try and see Kuganka.

For idiappams which achu is the best do you think? I used the one where we rotate the handle on top and it was ok ok.. not sure if the pressing type and one-hand press are easier to use..

Sorry kugan akka for Sri's "over-intelligent" q's... he has limited idea about tamil dishes.. he knows more of only north indian dishes.. so nan eppo puthusa edavathu try panna, antha dishku intro kuduthu adukku apram q & a session vera handle pannanum, which i'm not equipped for :confused2:

Take care aka.

Dear Priya, thanks for your nice post.

Priya I use a wooden mould for my idiappam and murukku.
You can use any mould that you are comfortable with.
I also bought a stainless steel thattu's for steaming my idiappams.
They are so easy to use. Get a set if you visit India.

Priya as for Sri, I was just joking, other wise there will be no punch in this thread.
I can see the happiness in your family, when you explain a dish, and Sri enjoying his meals.
That's the way it should be in a family. God bless you both.
Thanks and take care, Kugan

Dear Dev, try and see, you can try with panner, but I think panner will be a bit hard.
Not soft like tofu. The ginger and things will cover up the smell of tofu.
Thanks and take care, Kugan
