Quick and Easy Nucchina Unde

There are many ways on how to prepare Nucchina Unde. I wanted to do something quick and easy. So, I try to come up with things which speed up my cooking, since I hardly have anytime these days for cooking. As I was preparing this, my Daughter clicked all the pictures for me, since the schools are closed. So, here comes the recipe for Nucchina Unde the easiest you can ever make. I used a combination of both Channa dal and Toor dal. In the typical Nucchina Unde recipe, you will however see just Toor dal.

Ingredients:

• 1 and 1/2 cups Channa dal
• 1 cup Toor dal
• 1/4 bunch corainder leaves
• 10 curry leaves
• Green chillies to taste
• 3 tsp fresh coconut – grated
• 1/2 inch ginger – grated
• Hing to taste
• Salt to taste

Method:

• Soak both the dals in water for at least 4 hours. Later, drain the water as shown below.
  
• Grind in a blender all the ingredients as listed above along with the drained dals.



• Don’t add any water at all. Just for a change I didn’t add Haldi, you can do so and see a little bit yellowish colored Nucchina Unde.
• As my Daughter said, it looks like Ambode mixture. And she tasted it and said it tastes like that as well. I never taste anything while cooking, so no idea if they taste the same. If you do try this recipe, and taste it, let me know.
• Now grease a flat stell vessel lightly, make oval shaped balls and steam in a pressure cooker for 15-20 minutes until they are done.
• Serve with Majjige Huli or Khadi. I came up with another quick and easy way of preparing Majjige Huli or Khadi as my daughter kept saying it was. Stay tuned for the next post.
