Rice – 1 cup

2 handful of Toor dal (soak rice and toor dal for 4 hrs)

20 Kashmiri red chilies

Salt to taste

Coconut oil for frying(u can use oil of ur choice I always prefer coconut oil for frying).

Method:

Grind soaked rice, dal and red chilies into a smooth paste. Add as less water. Make a thick paste.

Now mix salt and the ground paste with chopped taikilo. Mix evenly.

Make small balls and flatten it. Keep all the ambado ready for frying.

Heat oil and fry the ambado’s till crisp.

Taikile Ambado is ready to serve.

Taste fantastic with Rice and dal or Rasam.
