RAS Vodo.. a konkani delicacy



This is my grand mom's recipe which is traditionally  prepared on our new year/ugadi day.Today i got the time to post this as i was busy with my kids exams.In mangalore everybody prepare this dish on ugadi day .This is one of my favourite and i prepare this whenever i feel like.Normally my mom used to prepare the rice flour at home by soaking rice and then spread it on a clean cloth .After 1 hour its ready to make powder.Then that powder is mixed with coconut milk.It goes well with payasam or with some spicy curry.
