In a large bowl, combine the roasted rice flour, cardamom powder, and salt. Whisk them together until well mixed.

In a separate saucepan, gently heat the coconut milk and kithul treacle over low heat until the treacle is fully dissolved and the mixture is warm, but not boiling.
约 3分钟
烹饪提示: Do not overheat the mixture, as it can affect the texture of the kavum.

Gradually pour the warm treacle mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring continuously with a wooden spoon or spatula.
约 3分钟
烹饪提示: Add the liquid slowly to avoid lumps and ensure a smooth batter.

Continue mixing until a smooth, thick batter forms. It should be thick enough to hold its shape when dropped from a spoon.
约 2分钟
烹饪提示: The consistency is key for the kavum to cook properly and achieve the right texture.

Heat the vegetable oil in a deep pan or wok over medium heat to about 170-180°C (340-350°F).
约 5分钟
烹饪提示: Use a kitchen thermometer to ensure the oil is at the correct temperature for best results.

Carefully drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil, one at a time. Do not overcrowd the pan.
