Kawum is a traditional Sri Lankan sweet
Kawum is a traditional Sri Lankan sweet snack that is commonly prepared during festive occasions, especially during Sinhala and Tamil New Year celebrations. It is a deep-fried sweet made from rice flour, treacle (a type of syrup made from jaggery or palm sugar), and coconut. Kawum is often shaped into small, round balls or diamond shapes before frying.
To make kawum, you'll need the following ingredients:
1 cup rice flour
1/2 cup treacle or jaggery syrup
1/4 cup grated coconut
1/4 teaspoon salt
Oil for deep frying
Here's a basic recipe to make kawum:
In a mixing bowl, combine the rice flour, grated coconut, salt, and treacle (or jaggery syrup). Mix well to form a thick batter. Adjust the consistency if needed by adding a little water or more rice flour.
Heat oil in a deep frying pan or wok over medium heat. Make sure the oil is hot enough for frying.
Take small portions of the batter and shape them into small balls or diamond shapes using your hands or molds if you have them.
Gently drop the shaped kawum into the hot oil, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Fry them until they turn golden brown and crispy. Flip them occasionally for even cooking.
Once fried, remove the kawum from the oil using a slotted spoon and drain them on a paper towel to remove excess oil.
Allow the kawum to cool before serving. They can be stored in an airtight container for several days.
Kawum is a delicious sweet treat enjoyed by Sri Lankans, particularly during festive occasions. The combination of rice flour, treacle, and coconut gives it a unique flavor and texture. Give it a try and enjoy this traditional Sri Lankan snack!
