    Kobbari Chegodilu is crispy crunchy rings that have coconut added for more flavour. These are popular snacks made during Deepavali.

    While I already have Chegodilu, Kodubale shared already, this is yet another version made with freshly grated coconut. Making this chegodilu is quite tricky as you need to have the snack crispy for a week or so.

    This is one of the frequent snacks that my Uncle used to get for us when they visit us from Tirupati. Those are thick and crunchy and somehow both the times I have made, I haven’t been able to replicate that version. Maybe that's a different recipe altogether.

    Still, this one was very good as the spicy rings had a good flavour with coconut added to it.

    For the second day of Andhra Snacks in BM#104 Sweets & Snacks week 2, I have a Kobbari Chegodilu, which means Coconut Savory Ring Murukku and if you are keen to know whats my Rajasthani Snack, hop over to Cooking 4 all Seasons!

      I haven't tried chegodilu somehow. These must have been crunchy and coconut must have added a great flavor. They surely make a great tea time snack.

      Coconut and moong dal must be tasting so good in this snack . The ring shaped snack is interesting , you say it’s tricky - why tricky ? Does it loose its crispness ?
