Instructions

  • 1 In a medium size bowl, take besan , yoghurt, salt, hing, chilli powder, garam masala ginger and green chillies. Mix them with a spoon.

  • 3 Now the most tricky part , take the arbi leaves , wash them . Now with the help of a knife with a very gentle hand remove the thick part of the veins of the leaves .
  • 4 Once you remove the thick part of veins , spread the batter on the whole leaf. Cover this leaf with another leaf . Now make the roll of it like we make wraps.
  • 4 Turn on the stove pu your steamer on it or if you don't have steamer put vessel filled 1//4 th with water and cover it with strainer which can cover the whale vessel
  • 5 Put the rolls on the strainer and cover it with a cover so that steam dont go out. Steam the rolls for at least 20-25 minutes.
  • 6 Once the rolls get steamed, place them in the plate to cool down. Once your arbi rolls are cool down, cut them in slices ½ inch thick.
  • 7 Take a frying pan and put 1 tbsp oil in it. Let the oil get hot on medium flame. Once the oil get hot add sesame seeds and wait till they crackle. Now add your arbi leaves and saute it. Sprinkle some salt on it, again mix them well with spatula.
