White Yellu – as the main ingredient

We make this sweet using white Yellu as the main ingredient. Since Yellu is also known as sesame, people often call the sweet sesame balls. Yellu also comes in black, and both varieties are rich in nutrients. This health benefit adds to the value of the sweet.

We prepare Yellu Urundai for almost all South Indian festivals—from Ganesh Chaturthi and Krishna Janmashtami to Diwali and more. So, everyone cherishes fond memories of this delicious sweet for a lifetime. We roast the sesame seeds to perfection, let them cool, and then mix them with Jaggery melted in the right proportion. Finally, we shape the mixture into balls to create the crispy, healthy Yellu Urundai.

Jaggery and Yellu combo towards Health 

The benefits of Jaggery are well known. The natural ingredient rich in antioxidants is also an immunity booster, also safe up to a limit for diabetes patients. We carefully procure the best farm-fresh jaggery to use as a key ingredient in this delicious sweet dish.

Yellu- the Sesame seeds goodness is another specialty. The nutritious seed is also a good source of fiber, which also promotes healthy hair growth. We procure White Yellu for this item of ours. Hence, people consider this ingredient combo the best healthy alternative to high-sugar sweets.

Tradition

In the good old days, when joint families were common, the women in the household would sit together in the verandah or courtyard, chatting and making large batches of urundais. Those joyful moments still remain cherished memories today!
