When Sreevalli of Ammaji Recipes asked me for a guest post some time back, I was totally hooked up with multiple jobs.. but before i could tell a list of tasks in front of me she told that I can chose a later date, for which I accepted..I totally left it there and was moving around when around the corner I remembered about the guest post. Now cooking was fine but clicking it was very difficult..Finally when I saw a little sunshine I went with this simple but a traditional recipe of Kerala.
Ada is a sweet delicacy from Kerala.These are steamed rice pockets filled with sweet coconut filling. It is know as ela ada because of the way it is made. Usually plantain leafs are used to cook them, but due to the unavailability of them here I have experimented with parchment paper and its a success. They are enjoyed as snack/sweet during evenings with tea as well as can act as breakfast if you have a sweet tooth in the morning.
Looks awesome Reshmi...very nicely made...Parchment paper seems to be a great alternate to plantain leaves, so we can make it whenever we feel like..need not wait for plantain leaves.
