The batter should neither be thick nor very loose. If it is very thick, make it some more loose adding water. If it is very loose, Then you can make it some more thick by blending the batter with all purpose flour\/ maida.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Strain the prepared batter using muslin cloth or cheese cloth at least twice. Make sure your batter should be lump free.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Roast the cashews and raisins in ghee.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Add roasted cashew nuts, raisins, cumin seeds and fried small coconut pieces (if you have. I didn&#8217;t add) to the batter and mix well<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Heat water in a steamer. You can use pressure cooker also.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Now grease the vessel using ghee or oil. I used a steel plate. Just heat the steel plate before greasing for 7 to 8 seconds.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Pour the batter into the greased vessel filling up to 1 1\/2 inch height of the steel plate.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Close the steel plate using an aluminum foil and place the steel plate inside the steamer.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Steam till done (for 25 to 30 minutes).<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Take the steel plate out of the steamer after done and let it cool for some time.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Cut it into desired shapes.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"ERNutrition\"><\/div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"ERNotesHeader\">Notes<\/div>\n<div class=\"ERNotes\">Grind in a grinder than a mixie\/mixer so that the kinnathappam will turn soft.[br][br]Grind the soaked rice without any lumbs.[br][br]Don&#8217;t forget to use a muslin cloth or cheese cloth otherwise if some particles may[br]retain, the soft texture of kinnathappam may decrease.[br][br]If you are using a cooker then place a ring\/ steel plate at the bottom and then place[br]the pan containing kinnathappam batter on top of it. Close the cooker but do not[br]place weight on it. Let the steam pass through the nozzle.[br][br]Add water which will last for 40 minutes in cooker.[br][br]Serve chill which will make it taste better.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"endeasyrecipe\" style=\"display: none;\">3.2.2089<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kinnathappam Recipe Type: authentic\/ traditional dessert Cuisine: kerala cuisine Author: bini basheer Prep time: 30 mins Cook time: 30 mins Total time: 1 hour Serves: 2 plates Kinnathappam is a sweet dish infact a traditional dessert which is very familiar to keralites..Itz really an inevitable dish for my family for an iftar eve..Thanx to our &hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":21084,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[409,4,472,700,27,22,81,479],"tags":[975],"class_list":["post-15344","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-coconut-milk-by-ingredient","category-desserts","category-gluten-free","category-guest-recipes","category-indian-cuisine","category-kerala-cuisine","category-rice-dishes","category-sweets","tag-desserts","course-authentic-traditional-dessert","cuisine-kerala-cuisine-2"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15344","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15344"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15344\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/21084"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15344"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=15344"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=15344"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
