Instructions
  1. Wash and soak the rice for 6 hours.
  2. Prepare the kappi and leave it aside to cool.
  3. Grind soaked rice to a smooth paste by adding cold water. Coarsely grind the grated coconut, kappi, cumin seed, shallot, and garlic. Add yeast and grind for a minute.
  4. Mix everything and keep aside for 6 - 8 hours to ferment. Then add sugar and salt, stir well. Let it ferment for another 1 hour.
