I like the ones that are made near my bangalore home and My loyalty towards MTR, my child hood brand:) I used redchilli powder and dessicated coconut. My mom uses pottukadalai maavu( fried grams powder) instead of maida and rava. <br /><br />Even my mom and MIL were surprised to hear of kodubale's bursting. They attribute it to unsieved rice flour. They recommend sieving the rice flour before making cheedai or any crispy fries since the shop brought ready made ones may have some stone dust also. I overlooked that instruction and also another reason may be because of the uneven size. whatever....it was quite an experience:) Thank you Rama,Ashahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01853943313848326731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5666976084812162595.post-57327032855782868702013-12-02T07:16:38.149-08:002013-12-02T07:16:38.149-08:00Quite a learning experience there:)) Love the hone...Quite a learning experience there:)) Love the honesty with which you have described the entire endeavor.

I make them ...What an experience making Kodubalais!<br />I make them off and on it comes out very tasty. I never like the shop ones,and the Mayias is ok, nothing great.<br />I have heard of only Cheedai bursting , one must always keep them covered under a damp cloth, before frying them I am told. Anyway I don't have the patience of rolling so many tiny balls so after making it once I have not made it again. For Koduwalais, my recipe is to add same measure of rice flour, rava( any rava) and maida, and lots of green chillies, sesame seeds, grated coconut and plenty pf fresh coriander and curry leaves chopped, and some butter/ ghee for mixing them together, and of course water.<br />I have stopped making this snack also because I get bored makes so many bangles, and also frying them in very low heat.<br />However, it is always good to learn some of these snacks and make them at home.<br />Nice to read through your experience. Must try out the dosas.Rama Ananthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00962222316822524699noreply@blogger.com
