GSB‑Style Patrado (Colocasia Leaves)
Patrado — the timeless GSB favourite made with tender colocasia leaves rolled in a spiced rice‑gram batter, steamed to perfection. 🌿✨
Every slice carries layers of flavour, warmth, and nostalgia — the kind of comfort only homemade food can give💛
🍽️ Preparation Steps
1. Prepare the leaves — Wash colocasia leaves, trim the thick veins, and pat dry 🌿
2. Make the batter — Grind rice, toor dal, red chillies, tamarind, jaggery, hing, and spices into a thick, smooth paste 🔥
3. Layer & spread — Place a leaf shiny‑side down, spread batter evenly, stack 3–4 leaves repeating the process 🍃
4. Roll tightly — Fold the sides and roll into a firm log, coating the outside with more batter 🎋
5. Steam the roll — Steam for 30–40 minutes until set and cooked through ♨️
6. Serve warm — Enjoy with chai or as a side with lunch ☕💛
