Adsara Undi

                            Adsara means tender coconut . This Adsara undi (steamed cake ) is made as a breakfast or snack ,this is usually accompanied with the very favourite of all GSB’s – Dalithoy. Any hummann or edigai too goes well with this.

                      Serve with a dish of your choice 
Note :-

  1.  you HAVE to use torno / jeevo narlu for this – whose flesh will be very soft – even better  is to use shiyale / tender coconut ..you may use more coconut if you want than suggested – for cottony texture .IMG_3069
  2. For a sweet version of this . add sugar to the batter before steaming .
  3. If you prefer polos instead of undis – grind the batter to a smooth paste and use for making polos .
  4.  You can make the batter the previous evening & refrigerate to use the next day morning ..this gives very soft undis .
