• Add minced chicken and salt, fry until dry.
• The chicken will be almost done by now.
• Remove from fire and allow it to cool.

• Grind the kola urundai mix in batches.
  
• Then add powdered pottukadalai & then combine with an egg.
• Mix well until all the ingredients are well combined.
• Shape into small balls and set aside.
• Heat oil in a frying pan, when it is hot enough to fry the balls, drop the chicken balls one by one into it.
• Just add enough chicken balls into the oil, do not overcrowd the pan.
• Do not disturb or try to turn the chicken balls for a few minutes.

• Remove Chicken Balls/Chicken Kola Urundai from oil and drain them on a paper towel.
• Serve Chicken Balls/Chicken Kola Urundai hot.

Unleash the Culinary Magic: Chicken Kola Urundai Extravaganza!"

NOTES:

• Remove all white fatty threads from the minced meat.
• Dry roasting and powdering the spices will give a nice flavour.
• The secret weapon –  Pottukadalai Powder (Roasted gram dhal powder) Do not substitute it with besan or any other powder, It adds a textural delight that binds the spices and chicken into savoury perfection.
• Do not add water to cook the minced meat.
• The mix should be dry with no water content.
• Pottukadalai powder is mainly added to remove the wetness of the mix.
• Do not add water while grinding, too.
• Water content and the fat will break the meat balls in oil while frying them and tend to observe a lot of oil.
• Care should be taken, not to break the meat balls while turning them in oil while frying.
• Adding eggs will make them crispy.
• But then oil tends to bubble up while frying the next batches of meat balls.
• To avoid this, add a piece of tamarind into the hot oil.
• I add a handful of breadcrumbs while grinding the pottukadalai powder, this makes it crispier and adds a bit of sweetness to the meat balls. It is totally optional.
• Can cook this recipe with minced chicken or beef instead of minced mutton.
• For a Vegetarian Version of the same, try your hand with Beetroot Kola Urundai or Vazhaipoo Kola Urundai.
  
• Can also make Mutton Kola Urundai Curry with this mix.
• But there is no need to fry the meat balls/kola urundai for the curry.

    Chicken Kola Urundai has transcended boundaries, delighting taste buds and winning hearts. Even my family claims it surpasses the mutton & beef version!  This culinary voyage ends with a plateful of nostalgia and a satisfied palate. May your kitchens echo with the joy of tradition and the aroma of Chicken Kola Urundai. Stay tuned for more tales from the "Essence of Life - Food" blog!

Sip the festive spirit with Christmas Sangria

Sip & Slip into the past!

    Did you know Sangria has a page in history dating back to 200 B.C.? It's like a time-travelling sip! The Romans, lovers of Spanish red wines, coined the term 'Sangria' from the Latin 'sanguis', meaning blood, referring to its deep colour. Over time, brandy and fruits joined the party, making it the potent and flavourful punch we adore today.  

A Dilemma over the Wine! 

    Choosing the right wine for your Sangria is an art.  Go traditional with Spanish Red Wine, or can go with your choice of wine.  Remember, the best Sangria is the one that suits your taste buds, so don't be afraid to experiment with your Sangria recipe.
