Kaipathiri
Posted On 12-Sep-2007 at 3:00 PM by Seena
The name Kaipathiri is because this roti is prepared by hand(Kai).
Ingredients
Rice powder 1 glass
Water 1 glass
Small onion 3 chopped
Coconut grated ½ cup
Cumin seeds ½ tsp
Salt
How to prepare
Boil water with salt, coconut, chopped small onions and cumin seeds. When boils, reduce the flame, slowly put the rice powder into this and stir. Stir well for few seconds. Remove from fire, pour the contents into a saucer. Make dough by kneading it well.
Make balls of big size. Take a banana leaf and place the ball on it. Press with palm(with all fingers) then turn. Repeat this till the pathiri gets enough size. Then place it on a hot griddle / tawa and cook them turning occasionally. Unlike nice pathiris , this might have brown spots and marks, this is thick and tastes good even without curries. When one pathiri is done, soon dip it in coconut milk and transfer into another plate.
I always thought pathiri was very difficult to make.
Your recipe looks really easy to make.
I made one Kai rotti too for K dishes,we say Kai for hands as well!!
Looks yum, Akki rotti is a classic K'taka dish too! (Hint!);D
seena,
kai pathiri parcel cheyamoo.:))
Ramzan dishes adipoli.
Seena I do like this recipe I think sometime I will give it a try, you make this recipe seem simple thankyou. Your pictures look fantastic. :)
I make pathiri but never heard of kaipathiri...and yours look pretty good for a kai-version:)
Shn
Actually though I am a Keralite, I have to say I don't know much about Kerala-style preparations since I've never lived in Kerala at all. Your blog is teaching me a lot of things.
Oh great ! Always look out for pathiri recipes...but making with hand will need some practice. Will be great with the mutton curry i posted...hmm.. yum !
This is a simple recipe but very filling. we call this Rice Thalipeeth in goa. Just loved this.
seena..you did the round with ur palms..lovely! looks delicious..
wow the roti looks awesome we make a similar one too Asha has hinted you dear!:)
i love pathiri cuz it tastes so yummy with spicy curries! this looks nice and easy to make!
this is like coconutty akki roti!!! i am so sure that its absolutely delicious.
I tried this once, doing a lot of kusthi but didnt get it so well. yours look great.
Honestly, i can't wait to make this one. Looks very rustic and appealing, i am a huge fan of all sorts of pathiris. I may have to use a parchment paper or something to shape these as i always have a hard time finding banana leaves.Thank you.
Ramadan Kareem!!
Ramzan vidhavangal purathirangi thudangi alle!! Looks Yummy!!
