Ellu Urundai (எள்ளு உருண்டை)

Ellu urundai (ellu is sesame and urundai means balls or round) is a sweet made with sesame seeds and jaggery. It is a quick and tasty recipe. It is one of the foods prepared for Vinayaka Chathurthi for neivedhiyam. If it is difficult to shape the balls, use the help of little rice flour. So this for E and Regional Food..

    Black sesame not only look rich but they are crunchy and very very nutritious. This is truly "you just cant eat only one" kind of recipe.
