Hello everyone, welcome to Bapama's Kitchen! Today, we will be showing you how to make a tasty traditional GSB Konkani recipe known as 'Sanna Khotto,' which is a delicacy made a few times a year in Konkani households.
It is made by first preparing a masala using coconut, dried red chilies, hing and tamarind, then mixing it with a coarse paste made of soaked Rice and Toor Daal (lentil). The resulting batter is then filled into pockets made using jackfruit leaves or banana leaves and steamed in a traditional Indian steamer called pedawan for about 15-20 minutes. It is fairly easy to make and requires minimal effort to cook. All you need is a jackfruit or banana tree in your backyard! 😛
You can also enhance the flavor by mixing in some finely chopped onions, pumpkin flowers, or a few moringa leaves, giving it a flavorful and healthy twist!
If you do not have a jackfruit or banana tree, you can make tiny dosas with this batter, known as sanna polo. This dish is best enjoyed with some rice, dalitoy, curds, pappad, and any upkari you have made at home!

120 Grams Rice (Dosa Rice)
