    Pala Undrallu is a traditional Andhra sweet dish that is usually prepared as naivedyam during Ganesh Chaturthi or Vinayaka Chavithi festival along with Undrallu, Kudumulu and Modakam. This pala undrallu is also known as Undralla Payasam or Payasam Undrallu and made with rice flour, coconut and milk. The process of this sweet recipe has 3 easy steps, making the dough, shaping the dough into tiny balls and cooking them in a milk-fresh coconut sauce. And this Andhra Pala Undrallu is very similar to Tamil Paal Kozhukattai.

    Few Tips to Make the Best Pala Undrallu:

    1. Divide the dough into equal sized balls to ensure even cooking.
    2. Make sure you covered the prepared dough and shaped dough balls to make to the smooth and soft undralla payasam.
    3. Use a wide pan to cook the dough balls in milk to prevent breaking while cooking.
