Kuzhi Paniyaram



You need a kuzhipaniyaram pan. Any brand is ok. If you don't have this, add it to your "to buy list" when you go to India next time. Picture of the pan has been taken from here.


Ingredients:
Dosa batter-2 cups
Chopped onions-1/4 cup
Coriander leaves-handful
Jeera-1/2 tsp
Salt- a pinch
Hing-a pinch
Ginger chopped-1/2 tsp
Green chilli chopped-1/2 tsp
Curry leaves-a few

Method:
Heat kuzhi paniyaram pan. Put 2-3 drops of oil in each hole. fill each hole with the batter and drizzle a drop of oil on top. After 2-3 minutes, flip to cook the other side. Once both the sides turn golden brown, switch off and serve with ketchup or chutney.

My mom sometimes makes deep fried version of this. She adds little rice flour(to thicken the dosa batter) and other ingredients mentioned above to the dosa batter and deep fries. They are too delicious.
