Kunuku

Kunuku is an evening snack made using adai mavu. White rava is added to the adai mavu to make the fritter crispier. I usually make this kunuku when lot of adai mavu is leftover in the fridge and bored of making adai. Good snack for surprise visitors as they take less time to prepare. And also you will get 20 to 25 kunuku from 2 cups of adai mavu.

 

 

Ingredients:

Adai mavu / adai batter – 2 cups
Onion – 1big
Green chilli – 2 big
Chopped curry leaves – 1tbsp
Chopped coriander – 1tbsp
Rava / suji (white) – 2tbsp
Oil to fry
Salt to taste

Method:

Add the chopped onion, green chilli, coriander leaves, curry leaves, salt, rava, to the adai mavu and mix well. Now the kunuku mavu is ready. Keep aside for 10min.
Heat oil in a wok. When the oil is ready to fry, make small balls of the kunuku mavu and place them slowly in the oil. 5 to 6 at a time is best.
Fry them like vada both sides and remove from the oil.
Place them in a paper towel to remove excess oil.
Serve hot with tomato sauce.
