had to wait for an year every time.
It is very easy to make for my mom and MIL, so its all about experience. This time, I tried very carefully
and followed my moms instructions. And now I can also confidently make adhirsam every year. This post is
sure a record for me. If you are also like me who loves adhirsam and want to make at home, I would

9. Once it rises up, immediately flip it and cook. Once it turns golden brown, drain from oil.
10. You must use another laddle and press it to sqeeze out the excess oil as shown, as it may retain some
oil in it. Repeat the process for the rest of the dough. Oil should always be in low or medium if needed.
Notes
The dough should be very loose when you make adhirsam. If it is stiff, then your adhirsam will
become hard and chewy. So you have to add a tblsp of milk and knead the dough well again and
try making. This will ensure the adhirsam to be soft.
Keep the dough ATLEAST overnight at room temperature. Do not take our from the fridge and
make immediately. Bring to room temperature.
The rice while grinding should be moist, retain water(need not drip) also the sieved flour also
should not get dry. Otherwise the adhirsam will get crisp and hard.
Even the syrup consistency is very important. If sugar syrup passes the soft ball consistency, it
will get hard or get dissolved in oil.
If you flatten so thin, the adhirsam will turn very crisp. So make it thick.
Cook in low flame to make sure it gets cooked evenly and also make sure not to over cook. It
makes the adhirsam harder.
Flip immediately once the it rises up after you add the adhirsam in oil.
The jaggery syrup will be needed depending upon the quality of rice, some need more, some need
less. So for safer side, make more. So the given quantity will be more, so keep that in mind.
In case, you adhirsam is chewy or hard, steam it for 3 minutes in idli plate/ steamer. It becomes
soft. Just for trouble shooting.
Will add more tips as I remember or more from my MIL and mom :)
You can store the dough for months if keep refrigerated and use it whenever needed. Even fried adhirsams can
be in shelf for a week.

One of my fav diwali delicacy... but always scared to make it on my own...my MIL makes the dough and
sends it to me..and I use it as and when required. You have made these perfectly..maybe I should also
dare to make these lovely adhirsams.

Such an awesome post I am surely going to try this. I have a doubt, what if the rice powder becomes dry,
can we sprinkle some water to the powder to retain the moisture?

Aishwarya, Keep it pressed so that the moisture is still there.If it dries, then just proceed making the
dough. If the dough is very stiff later, then you can sprinkle milk to make it loose.

Even i never tried making them, its scares me a lot, after many flops i dont have courage to make some, i
love that sugar adhirasam too,my grandma brings me specially for every deepavali,missing her now:(.
Even i have never tried adirasam so far as my mom always scares me that it will make more flop shows.

Unfortunately, in our house, athirasam is made only for death anniversaries !! So it is absolutely
forbidden for me to make it for any festivals..!! Have you ever heard of this in any other family?? What a
waste of such a good sweet !!

hi raks /raji,
i made adhirasams for the first time following your recipe and they came out pretty decent. i feared of
the the dough disintegrating in oil, but it did hold onto the shape. but the problem is the inside is soft but
the outer covering is pretty crisp like murukku. donno what could have gone wrong....i did everything as
u hav said...am i missing something in the frying part? the outer cover did break a little here and there
while frying. by the way but for your post i wud have never got the gut to try it out. i can eat adhirams
like crazy. thank u so much...planning to make another batch before diwali. lemme see if i can get it rgt
this time. and you are doing an awesome job here in this blog. keep up the good work. :)

Hi raks

receipes, presentation and especially your clicks makes me very hungry. u do with such an ease. great
work. i am planning to make your badushas. hope it comes great like yours. Advance deepavalli wishes.
keep up the good work.

Raji i made adirasam today.The smell of the dough was very tantalizing but to my disappointment this
was not come upto my expectation.Maybe too much of jaggery.It was very cripsy as in the case of masala
vada but the inside was a bit too gooey.

Hi, I tried making the dough just now and I guess my syrup is either too thick or I added too much Flour.
Now the dough is like puttu flour. Should I add milk right now, or should I make extra syrup and add it or
should I add milk tomorrow before frying in oil. Please reply. Wishing you a very happy Diwali.
Reply
If you can you can try making extra syrup and mix, or easy way is to add milk and mix just before making
adhirsam...hope this helps

I just tried ur recipe...the 1st 3 samples tat I tried turned out to be crisp n the dough was too loose..so I

shape..please reply !!

Adding rice flour later never works. Making dough before the rice flour looses its moisture is
the key in making. I have no solution for adhirasam getting separated in oil. I will consult with
my elders at home and get back if at all there is any solution.
