Kodubale~~IC Challenge

Kodubale, the famous ring murukku this is how we call it. Kodubale is our this month's Indian Cooking Challenge and Valli shared two recipes of this kodubale, one is from Suma's space and the another one from Latha's space. I chosed Lathamma's recipe coz of peanuts, as i ran out of them i couldnt able to do Suma's version. I'll making her version soon as everyone at home enjoyed munching these cuties.Coming to this kodubale, this is a quite famous snacks in Karnataka eventhough Andhralites shared almost a same murukkus called chegodilu, we have already tried for Indian cooking challenge and you can see them here.

While am rolling the dough, my lil one was very curious and helped me to roll some, he just loved it and very much proud of rolling these kodubale. He couldnt stop himself calling his grandparents saying that he rolled perfectly these ring murukkus.Yep kids will definitely have fun and those lil hands will help you very much while making this murukkus. Dont forget to ask them to help you, that too if you are preparing kodubale in huge quantity.With a wonderful coconut flavour and crispiness, these kodubale are quite addictive.
