Here's another fun recipe using tapioca pearls, the same day I was tweeting about how to use them, someone mentioned that she makes a savory Indian snack with them. I think its from North India as my hubby has not heard of it, but it went down well as it was al gobbled up:-)
I just found out from the chow and chatter Facebook page from under the photo what this dish is called :-) - Sabera - sabudana khichdi yum
Ingredients:
- one cup of tapioca pearls
- about 1/2 cup of peanuts
- 2 red chili's
- a little butter or ghee
- a pinch of cumin seeds
- a few curry leaves
- 1/4 cup chopped coriander/cilantro
- salt to taste
Method:
- soak the tapioca pearls over night, they will absorb the water and become soft
- heat a little butter in a pan and add the cumin seeds, chili and curry leaves
- after a minute add the tapioca pearls and partially ground peanuts (I used a coffee grinder, we now have two coffee grinders as we use one for spices) and finely chopped coriander/cilantro
- add salt to taste and enjoy
Here's to lots more new recipes in 2012 :-)
Hope your all having a great week :-)
