Vrat Siddu With Walnut Chutney#AlphabetChallenge

Siddu is a traditional, stuffed steamed bread from the State of Himachal Pradesh, India. It's made from wheat flour dough, then rolled into thick circles, stuffed and steamed. I have made this for vrat/fasting so used bhagar/sama rice flour ( Barnyard Millet Flour).

Ingredients
For The Siddu Outer Covering
150 Grams Bhagar/Sama Rice Flour
1 Teaspoon Ghee
¼ Teaspoon Sendhav Namak
For The Walnut Chutney
8 -10 Walnuts
3 Green Chillies
½ Cup Fresh Yogurt

For The Filling
2 - 3 Medium Potatoes - boiled & mashed

1 Teaspoon Lime Juice

Method
For The Outer Covering

In a pot / kadai add 400ml water, salt & ghee mix well then add the sama rice flour, mix till it form a smooth batter. Then cook on low flame. With this method it require a little effort to knead. If your batter is still wet then spread it a plate and microwave for 2 minutes to dry it a little, then knead to a smooth soft dough. Cover and keep this aside, till we make the filling & Walnut Chutney
To Make The Walnut Chutney

Soak the walnuts in some little water for some time to soften them. Grind the soaked walnuts and green chillies with some salt to a fine paste. Add yogurt into a bowl and whisk well. Then add the walnut green chilli paste to the yoghurt, mix well and refrigerate till the Siddu's are ready to serve.
For The Filling

Heat desi ghee in a pan add the crushed green chilly, ginger and sauté for a minute, then add the mashed potato and mix well, add rest of the ingredients and give it a good mix. Filling is ready, let this cool.
To Make The Siddu

Make lemon sized balls of the dough.

Place one ball on a lightly oiled plastic sheet/parchment paper. Roll out to a small disc / circle with hand or keep the ball between 2 sheets and roll with the chapatti/puri press.

Use a cutter to cut it into a small circle.

Place 2 tablespoons of the filling.

Gently fold it into as show in the above pic. and press the edges to seal it.

Make all the Siddu's like wise.

Steam the Siddu in a lightly greased steamer for 15 minutes.

Insert a knife to check if the siddus are cooked( the knife should come out clean).
For Frying/Tadka

Heat desi ghee in a non stick broad pan, add the cumin seeds when they start to brown sprinkle a pinch salt, pepper and coriander leaves, mix well, then arrange the Siddu's on the pan When just start to change color at the bottom change sides and fry for a minute only. Switch of the flame.
