Karjikaayi / Karigadubu
This is very famous sweet dish of Karnataka. It is mostly prepared during Ganesha festival as it is believed that lord Ganesha likes it :-)
In olden days, it was prepared without using any moulds. Later, plastic moulds arrived in market and now a days everybody use the same. Even if you don't have a one, don't worry; I have shown preparing a karjikayi using mould and without using mould. So here we go !!
Ingredients
For dough
Maida - 2 cups
Chiroti Rava - 1 cup
Oil - 1/2 cup
Salt for taste
For filling
Desiccated coconut - 1
Powdered sugar - 1 cup
White sesame seeds - 1/4 cup
Oil to deep fry
Method
1. Mix Maida, Chiroti Rava and salt.
2. Heat 1/2 cup of oil and pour it on mixed flours. Mix it well.
3. Add water little by little, knead it well. Prepare a dough of consistency like the one we prepare for Pooris.
4. Keep the dough aside for 10 minutes by covering it with a lid.
5. Grate the desiccated coconut. Mix it with Sesame seeds and sugar powder.
6. Now make small lemon sized balls and roll it to a small disc of your palm size.
7. Fill the rolled disc with a spoon of filling prepared as explained in step 5.
8. Moist the edges of the disc with water as shown in pictures so that we can seal the edges properly. If the edges are not sealed properly, then when you deep fry it, all the fillings will be lost in oil.
So be careful.
9. Deep fry the sealed Karjikaayi in mid flame so that you get nice brown colour on both the sides.
Karjikaayi is ready to be served.
