Preparation Steps
Rice flour:
- Soak one cup of raw rice in water for about one to one and half hours and let it dry for a few minutes.
- Do not let it dry out completely and it shouldn't be too wet either. While the moisture is still present, grind it into fine powder.
- Sieve this flour and keep it aside.
For preparing the dough for Ariselu:
- Take a pan, add jaggery and water. Melt it at low to medium flame.
- Once the jaggery has melted into syrup transfer it to another fresh pan using a filter.
- Now let the jaggery thicken.
- To check the right consistency, take a small plate with water, drop a few drops of jaggery and try rolling it into a ball.
- If it is thick enough to roll then the consistency is perfect. Turn off the flame.
- Add the prepared rice flour to this gently, little by little and keep stirring.
- Add cardamom powder.
- Mix them well until the jaggery has absorbed the rice flour and it has become a loose dough.
- Once done you can let cool down to room temperature and transfer it to an airtight container.
- It is preferable to fry this dough into Ariselu on the next day to get a soft and perfect texture.
- You can store this dough at room temperature for 2-3 days too.
For preparing Ariselu:
When the loose dough has rested for 24+ hours it might have turned slightly stiff.
- Take a heavy bottomed pan and pour oil as required for deep frying Ariselu. Let the oil heat at high flame for a few minutes.
- Grease your hands with ghee/oil. Take a small amount of dough and roll it into a ball.
- Press this ball into a flat Ariselu shape with your fingers on a small piece of greased banana leaf. Make sure that you don't press it too thin.
- When the oil is hot enough, drop this round shaped dough into the oil.
- Reduce the flame and wait until it starts to float and puff up.
- Flip the Ariselu so that it is evenly cooked.
- Once it has cooked well, the sizzling sound and bubbles will stop.
- Take it out after softly squeezing out the excess oil using two skimmers.
- Place it on a tissue or strainer and in a few minutes it is ready to eat.
- Repeat the procedure and fry the remaining dough. Be cautious and fry them one by one.
- Once it is done place them side by side and let it cool down before you store them in an airtight container. These Ariselu can be fresh and soft for over a week.

Nutritional Value of Ariselu
Ariselu, a traditional Indian sweet made predominantly from rice flour and jaggery, boasts a unique blend of flavors and textures that make it not only delicious but also nutritionally significant. The nutritional value of Ariselu lies in its primary ingredients: rice flour, which provides carbohydrates essential for energy, and jaggery, a natural sweetener that is rich in minerals like iron, magnesium, and potassium. These components make Ariselu more nutritious compared to other sugary confections, as it offers a quick energy boost while also contributing essential nutrients to the body. In addition to being a delicious treat, the use of homemade or authentic sources of jaggery increases the availability of antioxidants, further enhancing its health benefits.
Nutritional Benefits and Significance of Ariselu
The nutritional content of Ariselu extends beyond basic energy provision; it also plays a role in traditional dietary practices that emphasize natural ingredients. The nutritional significance of Ariselu is apparent when considering its role in cultural festivities and rituals, where it is often prepared and shared among families. Consuming Ariselu during such occasions not only supports social bonding but also offers various nutritional benefits. Rich in carbohydrates and low in unhealthy fats, Ariselu can provide sustained energy without the sugar crash associated with many modern sweets. Furthermore, the presence of jaggery aids in digestion and may help in detoxifying the liver, which enhances overall well-being. By incorporating Ariselu into your diet in moderation, you enjoy not only a delightful taste experience but also the various health benefits it has to offer.
