ഉണ്ണിത്തണ്ട് കൊണ്ടാട്ടം 

Ingredients:

Raw rice                                     : 4 cups
Unnithandu(plantain stem)        : 1 foot long piece
Chilli pdr                                   : 4 tbsp
OR
Green chillies                             : 15 nos
Cumin seeds                               : 1 tbsp
Hing   powder                            : 1 tsp
Sesame seeds                             : 1 tbsp
Salt as required
Water as required

Method:

Soak rice for 5 hours and grind it to a loose batter like dosa batter and keep it overnight.
Cut unnithandu into small pieces and soak it in thin buttermilk, so that it won't change the colour. Next day morning drain it and wash it well with water.
Add more water to the batter ( the batter should be very thin). Add salt, hing powder, jeera, sesame seeds, chilli pdr (if green chillies are using grind it with rice) and unnithandu pieces to the batter and mix well.


Cook it, stirring frequently till the batter become thick, small bubbles will come out from the batter(that shows the batter cooked properly). Remove from fire and let it cool for sometime.


Spread  a plastic sheet in the sun and take small portions with your hand and keep it evenly in the sheet and let it dry for the whole day.


In the evening you can easily take out the kondattam from the plastic sheet.


Dry it again for 2 more days under the sun and store it  in a container. Whenever needed just take some and fry it in hot oil.

Tasty, fluffy kondattam is ready and you can have it with rice or even as a nice evening snack.
