 Ela Ada, is a Traditional Kerala delicacy. It is made of fresh grated coconut and jaggery, which is layered inside a dough made of  the rice flour and steamed in a banana leaf.It is usually prepared on Onam and goes well with any sadhya. 

In the South similar recipes can be found. Ela Ada is similar to Modak or Kozhukattai popular in Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu and other parts of the country and made especially during Ganesh Chaturthi and Patholi which uses turmeric leaves instead of banana leaves to steam the ada.

Serve these wonderful hot steamed Ela Ada as a sweet for the festivals like Onam along with a delicious kerala meal - Kerala Style Avial RecipeKerala Kadala Curry Recipe, Kerala Style Appam Recipe for a lunch or dinner.
