Munthiri Kothu | Kanyakumari Special Christmas Recipe



Munthiri Kothu with step by step pictures.


This recipe is one of the famous recipes in the southern district of Tamilnadu. "Munthiri" which means cashew and "Kothu" means a bunch. If you happen to visit any places down south during Christmas you can find the recipes in almost all houses. Whenever we return from there after Christmas  I make sure to load some of this with me. I love this recipe to the core and was happily making it here in Chennai in my kitchen.I gathered some information from my sister-in-law and proceeded to make it. As doing alone for the first time I just made a very small quantity. I regret it as it quickly got vanished.

Steamed Christmas pudding | Eggless pudding


Steamed Christmas pudding with step by step pictures.

At last, I did it, yes I want to make this steamed Christmas for a long time and I did it today. I referred many pages but many of it uses alcohol and eggs. I gathered some information from Sharmis passion and adapted my own way. I fully used atta and avoided white flour. Also instead of breadcrumbs, I used rusk powder. If using bread use fresh bread powdered in a mixer. The only time-consuming portion is the steaming part. My idli pot was not able to hold two pans to steam together. So it took 4 hours together to steam it,2 for each pan.
