Instructions
- For preparing dessert, soak unakkalari in water for 30 mins. Later, strain it.
- When it becomes dry, grind it to a very fine powder.
- :- Make sure you don¦t have any lumps in the powder.
- Place the plantain leaves directly on the gas flame till the colour changes.
- :- This is done to make the leaves more flexible and more aromatic.

- Add sufficient water and knead the whole thing very well.
- :- You can check the consistency by dropping a portion of the dough from your hand. It should not be too thick or too thin. The consistency should be that of dosa batter.
