Uddina Hittu ( Using powdered raw Urid dal)

Uddina Hittu or Urid dal majjige gojju is one of the famous and favourite dish of many in South Canara.

Here I have used raw urid dal powder and fresh butter milk. I do prepare butter milk at home using my mixi jar. It churns out butter and after collecting butter the butter milk is used for preparing sweet/salt lassi and some time tambuli or other preparation of using butter milk.
Uddina hittu /Urid dal powder and curd curry goes well with plain raw rice and chapatis or rotis.
