සාදාගන්නා ආකාරය
Mix scraped coconut and rice flour together until it becomes tiny balls.
Add some water and mix if you feel this is bit dry.
After mixing, steam this mixture about 45 mins. When we do so, these kawum can be kept around 02-03 days more than just making with pani pol.
After steaming crush this again in to tiny balls and Add two three tablespoons of astra butter as well.
To make the sugar caramel, put a small amount of sugar to your frying pan and let it melt under low heat.
When sugar is bubbling, put one cup of hot water in to this.
Mix this well and cook around 05 mins.
Then, add flour coconut mixture little by little and mix.
This needs to be cooked around 10-15 mins until it becomes a smooth sticky coconut paste.
Once this is ready, transfer this to a board and let it cool down where you can touch it properly.
Then make small kawum balls from this mixture.
After making all kawum balls the batter needs to be made.
For this, mix egg, coconut milk and salt together.
Then add rice flour and mix.
Now add all purpose flour and mix.
Mix this with flour until this becomes a smooth thick batter.
In this stage some people add turmeric powder to the batter to get more yellow colour to kawum. If you like you also can add 01 tsp of turmeric powder.
Once the oil is heated well, dip kawum balls in the batter and put them into oil.
Once kawum becomes golden brown get it out of oil and keep on a net or a tissue.
