SPICY MALABAR SNACK MUTTA ADUKK / PRAWNS STUFFED PANCAKES

SPICY MALABAR SNACK MUTTA ADUKK

mutta adukk recipe

Mutta adukk is an exclusive Malabar snack and is mainly prepared for the newly wedded groom. It is also known as Mutta pathiri or Sweet pancake.
Mutta adukk is normally prepared as sweet snack .But here I just made a  spicy adukk. For sweet mutta adukk, you should  add sugar, nuts, coconut and scrambled egg as the fillings. And the batter too, should be sweet. So add sugar instead of pepper powder and salt.

INGREDIENTS


Egg                                       - 6 nos (1 egg for filling)
Maida or All purpose flour  - 1 cup
Milk                                      - 1 cup (instead of water, for making                                                   thin batter)
Pepper powder                    - 1 tsp
Salt                                      - as required
Cardamom powder              - a pinch
Prawns                                 - fried and  minced
Coconut                               - half cup
Onion                                  - 1, finely chopped
Green chili                         -1 ,chopped
Tomato                               - half, finely chopped
Oil
Ghee
Coriander leaves


PREPARATION

  • Beat  5 eggs till soft. Now mix maida slowly to it and beat again.
  • Make a thick batter and add cardamom powder, pepper powder and salt.
  • Now pour 1 cup of milk to it, to make thin batter.
  • For the filling, Heat oil and saute onion, green chili and tomato.
  • Saute for a while and pour 1 beaten egg to it with salt.
  • Scramble it finely and add fried minced prawns, coriander leaves.
  • Mix well  and cook it for few minutes.
  • Keep it aside.
  • Heat a Neer Dosa chatti( cast iron appachatti) and apply some ghee evenly.
  • Make the flame low, and pour the batter to make thin neer dosa.
  • Put the egg prawn filling all over the dosa evenly.
  • Now fold it through the mid line, so that half  part of dosa gets folded over the other. (suppose you are  folding to the left side)
  • And press the edges, so that two layers get attached.
  • Now one side of the dosa chatti is empty.(ie..the right side is empty)
  • So apply some ghee on the right empty side and pour the batter in the empty right half side of the dosa chatti, with close contact to the middle of the first layer.
  • Put the fillings and keep it for some time.
  • Now slowly fold the first layer (from left to right) over the second fillings and press tightly at the ends.
  • Next the empty side is left side. So pour on the left side with contact to the middle line , put fillings and turn to left side.
  • Repeat until as much adukku you need.
  •  When cooled, cut into small pieces.
