Ari Unda

Ari Unda is one of my favourites & it was something my mother used to make regularly during our vacations & otherwise....I love Ari undas & It sure is pretty simple to make too....

Here goes the recipe....

Ingredients:
1.Raw Rice- 2 cups
2.Jaggery(grated)-3/4th cup,you could add more if you want it sweeter
3.Coconut-1 cup
4.Elaichi-2-3 pods

Procedure:
1.Wash the rice & drain it well. Once dry, dry roast the rice in a heavy bottomed vessel, until it turns brown...Ensure that you do not burn the rice & keep the flame on medium.....Keep aside & once cooled, grind the rice into powder in a mixer...I generally add the elaichi while grinding the rice....
 2.Take the jaggery & add half-1 cup of water & melt the jaggery on low heat...Keep it to a thickish consistency & strain it to remove dirt or other particles that might be present in the jaggery...Add the coconut & mix well.

3.Finally take all the ingredients ie the powdered rice,jaggery & coconut in a mixer,and blend well....Make small balls of these by hand...Ari unda is ready...Enjoy....:)))
