Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups Green gram(Cherupayar) Whole
  • Salt A pinch
  • 1 cup Brown sugar
  • 1 cup Grated coconut
  • 1 tsp Cardamom powder Elakka
  • 3 tbsp Ghee

For the batter:

  • 2 cups Allpurpose flour Maida
  • Salt A pinch

Instructions
 

  • Roast the green gram in a heavy bottomed pan, until an aroma is released. Let it cool.
  • Wash and cook the Green gram by adding a pinch of salt. Make sure that they retain the shape and not get mushy.
  • When cooked, remove the lid and let all the excess water evaporate. Keep it aside.
  • Heat 3 tbsp of ghee in a heavy bottomed saucepan.
  • When it melts, add the brown sugar. Mix well and let the brown sugar melt.
  • Add the grated coconut and mix well.
  • Add the cooked Green gram.
  • Heat it up for a couple of minutes, mixing well and remove from the stove.
  • When cool, add the cardamom powder and mix well.
  • Make small lemon size rounds with the green gram-brown sugar-coconut mixture.
  • Make a thick mixture with maida and salt along with enough water.
  • Heat 2 cups of oil in a wok or a saucepan.
  • Place a dry wooden chopstick in the oil. If it sizzles, the oil is hot enough to fry the Sukhiyan.
  • Dip each green gram rounds in the maida mixture. Make sure that it is completely coated with the flour mixture.
  • Carefully dip it in the oil and fry to a golden brown colour.
  • :- One can use jaggery too instead of brown sugar.
  • Enjoy the Sukhiyan
