2 cups rice flour
2 cups water
15 turmeric leaves
salt
For Filling
2 cups fresh grated coconut
1 cup Jaggery
1 tea spoon Cardamom powder
1 cup Jaggery
1 tea spoon Cardamom powder
4-5 table spoon cashwe nut pieces
METHOD:
First dough for them must be made. For this heat the water, add salt.When the water starts boiling add the rice flour in it and stir countinously for 1-2 mins till it mixes well in water. Remove from flame immediately and keep on stirring till its fully mixed with the water and forms a rough dough.Keep it for cooling.
Now the filling must be made.for this take a kadai and add the jaggery in it. Cook till it melts and keep on stirring.Now add the coconut in it and keep on stirring countinously till it mixes well with the jaggery. Check the sweetness if more is required then add the jaggery.Add cashwe nuts and mix. When its almost cooked, add the cardoman powder and remove from flame.
Now the hot dough must have been cooled. now kned the dough properly so that it becomes soft.
Now the patholis must be prepared. Take a turmeric leaf and spread it.Nowspread a thin layer of the rice dough on the leaf using hands. If the dough sticks to hand use little water. It makes the spreading easier on leaf. cover the whole leaf with a thin layer of dough.
Now spread around 1-2 table spoons of stuffing on it evenly except the edges of leaves. Use more or less stuffing according to your choice.Now fold the leaf and press on the edges so that it is sealed completely, n no filling comes out. It can be folded horizontally or verticaly, both shape patolis i have shown in the pic.
Make all the remaining patholis in a similar manner.Now Pile them in the steamer or in a cooker vessel.Steam them for aorung 15-20 mins.
Remove them and serve. They must be eaten by removing the leaf(extra info for those who dont know :-))
Turmeric LeavesNOTE: If you do not have turmeric leaves you can use parchment paper. But u wont get the traditonal turmeric flavour and taste.
You can even eat this patholis by pelling the leaf of a cooked patholi and shallow frying in ghee till slight red. This also tastes very nice.
Preparation Time:35 mins
