Undrallu

Undrallu is a traditional dish originating from Andhra Pradesh. These steamed rice balls are made with a combination of rice, water, Bengal gram (chana dal), and salt. The rice is washed, dried, ground, and boiled in water, then seasoned with salt. The mixture is cooked over low flames and constantly stirred. Cooked dal is then added to the rice and the mixture is stirred, cooled, and shaped into balls which are then steamed until done. Undrallu is traditionally served with raita or tamarind chutney.
