This majjige kadubu is prepared using rice butter milk, onion ginger, green chilli, curry leaves, coriander leaves and a tempering. You can serve this easy rice breakfast with sambar or chutney.
This recipe is an improved easy version of unde kadubu or pundi gatti, which I have posted long ago. This majjige kadubu is a very healthy recipe and is a perfect recipe to finish off leftover curd or buttermilk. I have used low quality sona masoori rice or ration rice in this recipe. You can use any rice of your choice but you may have to adjust the water quantity.
I have many steamed recipes on this website like kayi kadubu, kara kadubu, eeradye, pathrode, nuchinunde, idli, cucumber idli and pumpkin sweet idli recipes. Steamed recipes are very healthy.
Apart from these you can find many sweet recipes, snacks recipes, breakfast recipes, Malnad recieps and Udupi-Mangalore recieps on this website. Do Read, Try and Enjoy!!
