Uppu urundai, How to make uppu urundai

Uppu urundai/ Undrallu/ Biyampindi untrallu is a steamed South Indian breakfast that tastes perfect with any spicy chutney. These rice flour balls are super easy to make as it just requires tempering and steaming and your breakfast will be ready in no time. My mom usually prepares this at home actually in 2 versions, one is steamed balls without water and another one is with soupy water along with balls which I like very much. So she makes that one for me. But as I grew up I understood both are made in the same way and tastes same hence started liking in both versions. For this recipe I used store bought rice flour which yields perfect results. This uppu urundai/ undrallu can be served as snacks too. So lets get to the making!
