You read that right - Folks reading my blog might be becoming aware of my penchant for using rosemary in my preparation - For those of you have have not had the pleasure of rubbing that herb on your fingers and taking a good sniff of it, you don't know what your missing - it is out of this world!
This was my evening to try new things - tweaking the traditional, so to speak, just to see...or taste.
Making omapodi is quite cinchy The only bummer is you think you're making a lot about 10 birds nests and then you crumble them and they turn into this small amount :-( So you need to double the amounts if you are making it for a sizable number of people - My little girl calls it the crunchies and has been digging in!
Ingredients
3 cups of besan/ kadalamavu/ gram flour
one handful (small or big) of rice flour
2 table spoons of ghee
2 teaspoons each of
Aijwan/thyme
Black pepper
Dry rosemary (yes!)
Preparation:
Sift the flours
Grind the spices and herb dry in a coffee grinder or magic bullet
Sift these on to the flour
Add salt
Add the hot ghee and mix in
Slowly add water until the batter is a thick yet smooth mixture
Get the press greased and ready with the small holes disc
In a pan, fill 2/3rd with oil ( I used Mazola or corn oil)
Make the birds nests
It cooks really fast so make sure not to burn
Remove and put in a paper-towel lined colander
Crush and put in air tight box after it cools down - Yenja-E
