Havaadhuli Bis


Things u need:

2 onions
chillies
lemon
tumeric powder
tuna fish can/ valho mas
dessicated coconut
tomato paste
tomato puree (the ones with peeled tomatoes or tomato chunks in it)
chilli powder
pandan leaves
curry leaves
salt
dough

Make the dough like u make for roshi and pinch it off in small balls.

mix the onions, chillies, lemon juice together, and add 1/2 teaspoon of tumeric powder. add the dessicated coconut and the tuna chunks and mix it all well.
make small balls and stuff them into the dough balls, ans shape them like thin eggs. (make sure you close the end tightly, otherwise it will open up when you cook them later)

Once u are done stuffing all, boil some water and add the "bis" once the water is hot ( should be fine when u see start seeing the little bubbles)
Cook it till the dough is well cooked. (about 10-15 mins)

meanwhile, in another pan, fry thinly sliced onions with curry and pandan leaves till it wilts and becomes light brown. add half of the tomato puree (with 3-4 tomatoes), 2 tbsps of tomato paste, and 1 teaspoon of chilli powder. Mash the tomatoes in the fry pan while cooking it, till it becomes a nice slick paste. (reduce the amount of chilli powder if u are not a spice lover)

Add the boiled "bis" into the paste, mix it together, and serve!

tip: it might be a good idea to seive the flour before making the dough.
