Red Rice String Hopper/Idiyappam

Finally i prepared my favourite steamed food string hopper with some leftover red rice flour, its been a while i want to make this idiyappams with red rice flour but somehow i couldnt able to make them. Yesterday i prepared this string hopper and enjoyed thoroughly with sugar and fresh grated coconut, definitely a quick,easy,healthy and definitely a filling food.

If you dont like to have with sugar and grated coconut, you can very well go for a stew or you can temper them simply with spices and enjoy it as a savoury version.You can very well start your day with this healthy steamed food or else you can have for dinner. But i love them for my snacks, sending to my own event Healthy Dish-Steamed Foods guest hosted by Jaleela of Cookbookjaleela.


2cups Red rice flour (roasted)
1tbsp Oil
Salt
1cup Water
Sugar (as per need)
1cup Grated coconut
Cardamom powder (optional)

Bring boil the water with a pinch of salt and oil, gradually add the roasted red rice flour and cook until the dough get off from the vessel,keep aside and let them cool completely.

Grease the murukku press, use the string hoppers nozzle. Take enough dough from the already prepared red rice flour dough.

Drop it into the presser and press gently over a greased plate.

Steam cook for 10minutes and transfer the cooked string hoppers to a bowl.Continue the same process with the remaining dough.

Immediately add the sugar, cardamom powder and enough grated coconut and mix everything well.

Enjoy warm.
