Kokis is a deep-fried, crispy Sri Lankan food made from rice flour and coconut milk. Although considered as a traditional Sri Lankan dish, it is believed to have come from the Dutch. This is an important dish when celebrating Sinhala and Tamil New Year and plays a major role in the festivities.

Ingredients:
  • Rice flour 200g
  • Coconut Milk (thick) 3/4 cup
  • Egg (optional) 1
  • Turmeric Powder 1/2 TSP
  • Sugar 1 1/2 TBS
  • Salt 1/2 TSP
  • Oil For deep frying

Steps:

  • Mix the egg and the sugar together.
  • Add salt, turmeric powder and stir.
  • Add the rice flour with coconut milk and give a good stir.(Hand Works Best)
  • The consistency of the mixture should be same as the Dosa batter.
  • Heat oil in heavy bottom work and hold the kokis mould in the oil for few seconds until the mould get hot.
  • Dip the heated mold into the batter and place the mould again into the oil.
  • When you dip in the batter make sure you don't submerge it completely. Later it will be little difficult to remove from the mould.
  • Once the kokis start to separate from the mould, deep fry until golden brown.
