How to make the Coconut Poli
For the dough:
In a wide bowl, take the flour, a small pinch of salt, slowly add water to knead to a soft pliable dough. Then add the oil and incorporate well into the dough. Knead till you get the dough soft and non sticky. Cover with a wet muslin cloth and rest for at least 30 mins. For best results you can rest it for atleast an hour or so.
For the stuffing:
Grate the coconut and keep it aside. Melt the jaggary in a pan with just water to cover it. Once it melts, remove the scum and add the grated coconut in and continue cooking with the mix becomes thick to handle and not runny.
Serve oil

Hi,
I am a big fan of any food that has stuffing in it. I have eaten normal poli with dhal but this is something new and looks yummy. I have visited your blog many times and consider it an encyclopedia of my fave foods. I have a new blog and would you allow me to add you in my "Blogs I follow' list?
