Sorghum is known as Jowar in Hindi, Cholam in Tamil, Jonna in Telugu, Jola in Kannada and cholum in Malayalam. Sorghum is a powerhouse of nutrition and is a good source of dietary fiber. According to some studies, sorghum may reduce the risk of certain cancers and also help manage cholesterol levels. With this Sorghum we are going to learn a festival recipe, sorghum/jowar/ cholam vella puttu. Instead of rice flour we are making it with sorghum. This is a wonderful way to include sorghum/ jowar / cholam in our diet.
Heat a pan and add the Maize / cholam powder and fry it till nice aroma comes.
Mix a pinch of salt in water and boil it and allow it to cool.
Add water little by little in the flour and mix the flour so that the flour should be wet and not like a dough. We need to steam the flour and it requires little water, so be careful and do not add extra water.
Sieve it in a siever so that no lumps are formed.
Now spread this mixture in idli plate and steam for 10 to 15 minutes.
Take the cooked flour and just whip once in a mixie (if there are any lumps it will break).
Melt jaggery in a pan adding by adding little water (if you are using good quality jaggery no need to strain it, otherwise when all the jaggery melts strain it and again let it boil).
Now add cardamom powder, one tbsp of ghee and remove from flame.
Add the broken flour and mix it well with the jaggery juice.
Meanwhile fry the finely chopped coconut bits in the remaining ghee till golden brown colour.
Add the fried coconut bits and mix it well.
The delicious and healthy sorghum vella puttu/ jowar vella puttu / makka cholam vella puttu is ready.
