'Upma kolakattai" - snack

For upma kolakattai, 1 cup of idli rava, that is, boiled rice/ sela rice rava/sooji  washed, then remove water & soak in about 1/4 cup water for 30 minutes. For seasoning, 1/4 tsp mustard seeds, 2 tsp each of chana & udad dals, 2-3 green cilies finely cut,  1" ginger cut fine, 1 sprig curry leaves finely chopped. Heat 1 tsp oil, add the mustard seeds & dals, when it cracks & dals turn golden, add the chilies, curry leaves & ginger, roast for 1 minute, add 2 pinch hing, add the soaked rava, with another 1/4 cup water, mix well, till it turns into a lump, just like in the picture shown below the ingredient one. then add some water in your cooker, wash the idli plates well, make kolakattai like shown in the picture or it can be made into round ones, Steam for 10 minutes. Remove & eat with coconut chutney.

ps- this is normally the morning breakfast, like idli it is healthy, as it has very less oil & it is steamed.
incase the left overs are there, or you want to take to office or send to school for lunch, cut the kolakattais into small pieces, take a pan, put 1 tsp oil, some milagai podi, mix well, add the cut pieces, roast for 2 minutes. This also tastes good, as normally I send this for mid-morning snack for my husband to his office.
