ABOUT Kaanole RECIPE

Kaanole is a steamed sweet dish made by using whole wheat flour and jaggery. This special treat is made specially on Naag Panchami day in my family since ages. Recipe is passed on to me by my mum, to her by my Granny and so on. Trying my bit to safeguard this tradition by making this dish at least once every year on Naag Panchami Festival.

Instructions

In a bowl take grated Jaggery and add some warm water to it to dissolve the Jaggery. Stir well.
Take wheat flour in a another bowl, add a pinch of salt and oil to the flour and using this Jaggery water knead into a soft dough. Add more water if needed.
Pinch a small portion of the dough and make a ball shape. Roll out it using a rolling pin to round shape by applying few drops of oil on the rolling board. Do not use flour for rolling.
Now apply oil and fold it to half, again apply some oil and then fold one more time to form a triangle shape.
Make all the Kaanole in similar way and keep them in a greased container and cook in a pressure cooker for 3 whistles.
Serve piping hot with Suji Kheer. Green Chili Pickle also goes well with the sweet Kaanole as a side dish.
