Healthy evening Millet snack - Tappalentu

             I learned this recipe from my friend from Kadapa. Its traditionally made with rice flour. As usual I have to add my twist to it :). I used Prosomillet flour in addition. And it turned out tasty too. These 'tappalentus' are loved by everyone in my family and one of my kid's favorite snacks. 


Preparation time : 40 min
Serves : 4- 5 people

Ingredients : 
Proso millet flour -  1 cup
Rice flour -              1 cup
onion( finely cut ) - 1 medium
Chilli curry leaf paste - 2- 3 spoons
Jeera -                      1/2 tea sp
Coriander leaves (finely chopped) - 2- 3 spoons
Salt -                        to taste
Oil -                         3 - 4 spoons

You can make a simple curd dip for added taste. Just add salt and pinch of chilli powder to a cup of curd.

Method :
Mix all ingredients except oil in a bowl using little water till it forms a ball.

Now take a thin wet cloth. Make small balls out of the atta, and press them gently till they become 2 mm thick. Gently over turn the cloth taking the tappalentu in to palm. Put it on the heated tava. Add few drops of oil. Cover it with a lid for two minutes. Now flip them( you should see a golden colour) and let cook for two more minutes.
