Colocasia leaves or kesuvina soppu is a good source of vitamin A ,C, folate and calcium. It is rich in antioxidants.
I wanted to try patrode from a long time.
For this soak two cups dosa rice for few hours with Bengal gram quarter cup. Prepare the masala by roasting red chilli, coriander, cumin, garlic, tamarind. Make it more spicy and soury.. Blend with soaked rice and Bengal gram and salt. Make sure that not much water is added and good consistency is obtained.
Colocasia leaves are usually itchy. Remove the thickened parts over leaves and spread the batter over the leaves one above other and fold after 4 - 5 leaves to the desired shape.
Now steam boil for 20 min. Let it cool and cut into slices. Patrode is ready to serve. Some may prefer to have them with coconut oil.
