Name: Sannas
Ingredients: 250 g Rice; 1 Coconut; 3/4 Bottle toddy (sap of coconut palm); Salt and sugar to taste

The focus is on the baby! But the focus is not on a baby, but again who this baby is and what He will become. The Christmas story is about wonder (Lk. 2:19, 51). You see, if He were born to Caesar Augustus in a palace there is not much left to the imagination. But we are called to intense faith to believe that somehow this child is Lord and will be Messiah and Savior (Lk. 2:11). The narrative makes it clear that for this to happen it must be the hand of God with Whom nothing is impossible (Lk. 1:37).

INGREDIENTS

250	g	Rice
1		Coconut
3/4		Bottle toddy (sap of coconut palm)
		Salt and sugar to taste

INSTRUCTIONS

Wash the rice and soak overnight.  Drain then grind the rice finely with
some of the toddy.  Grate and then finely grind the coconut.
Mix the rice, coconut, 1/2 tsp salt and about 4 tbs (or more) sugar.  Add
enough toddy to make a thick batter.  Cover and keep in a warm place for
about 3 hours until batter doubles in quantity. Pour batter into saucers or
idli moulds and steam for 20 minutes. To check if the sannas are done,
pierce with a knife. If the knife comes out clean then the sannas are done.
