Kozhukattai Mavu Outer Cover Preparation using Rice Flour

We can make many different varieties of delicious Kozhukattai and offer as neivedhyam to Lord Ganesh on the auspicious occasion of Ganesha Chaturti (Vinayaka Chaturti). For any variety of kozhukattai / modak, the Kozhukattai Mavu Outer Cover preparation is same and making a perfect dough out of rice flour is the main aspect to get softer kozhukattai. Only if the outer cover is soft, we would be able to enjoy the taste the filling. This the traditional and conventional preparation of kozhukattai mavu (kozhukattai outercover). I have been making this for many years and the outercover would be perfectly soft using this method. Please refer this to prepare any kind of kozhukattai.

The water and rice flour ratio is what crucial to this method of making Kozhukattai Mavu. For 1 cup of grounded and sieved rice flour, we have to add 3/4th water and 1/4th milk. The ratio differs for ready made flour sometimes. So always try 1:1(riceflour : water) ratio and then adjust rice flour or water accordingly. Milk gives a nice texture and color to the dough. Without milk also we can prepare. The dough color will be little dull without milk. Otherwise the taste and softness will remain same.

For Beginners who find this method of making Kozhukattai Mavu  difficult or rather complicated, can try my other version of making Kozhukattai Mavu Outer Cover using rice batter. Alternate method is also simple, easy and not complicated.
