Raw rice - 1 cup-soaked for 4 hours or overnight[I used half and half of raw rice and Payasam rice-Puzhukkalari]
Freshly grated coconut - 1 cup
Jeera/Cumin seeds - 1 teaspoon
Salt to taste
Method
Grind the grated coconut to a smooth paste in the mixer.
Drain the soaked rice and grind it along with coconut to a coarse paste-almost the consistency of sooji/semolina.
Add the jeera and salt to taste.
Make small balls out of the paste[size of a lime] and steam in a steamer or an idli cooker for about half an hour or till a toothpick inserted comes out clean-You could also cook the batter,as in Undi which would make the batter stiff and pliable.This way,it is easier to make into round balls and then steam them.Follow whichever method you are comfortable with.
Serve hot.
