Yesterday got from my friends back yard kaffir family(I think so, though they are bigger than kaffir limes) lemons and leaves. Today made veppallaikatti- its made out of lemon leaves.
Recipe and method of preparation
Wash, dry and chop lemon leaves into tiny pieces, make a coarse powder by adding salt in mixer jar. Squeeze lemon extract.
Dry roast red chillies, hing cake, a tiny piece, powder it and add lemon leaves powder, mix them both in mixer. Remove and mux gently. Make sure you adjust salt. Make small round shaped spheres out of it and store in air tight containers. You can add this when you make buttermilk or enjoy as a side dish with curd rice.
You can add broken urad dal if you wish to while roasting red chillies, I have not added as I use it in buttermilk most of the time as a flavour enhancer.
