Pootha Rekulu

pootha rekulu (literally means "smeared sheets") are very very thin rice sheets.It is not possible to prepare the Putarekulu from scratch in home. But if we can get the Rekulu we can add powdered sugar and ghee and make Putarekulu. 

Putha rekula are delicious. To make them at home we will need: 
powdered sugar -- 2 cups
Ghee- 1 cup
maida,or all purpose flour-- 2 cups Or can even use filo dough(1 pck) cardomons or powder-- 4 


PROCESS:

Grind the sugar into fine powder adding cardomons. Next,mix the flour with ghee and water.Then press them very thin.(with a puri maker or a roller )and cut into long strips of each sheet into 4 inch wide.It will be very hard to handle.place them on a plain surface carefully and with the help of a brush,apply ghee all over it.and once you are done with ghee part,sprinkle the powdered sugar over the ghee strips. Roll them carefully into rectangles. Give it a few minutes to absorb the sugar into the dough.If you wait for 6hrs,it will turn crisp. 
Your putha rekulu are ready to eat!
