Carrot Paniyaram | Gulittu | Gundponglu

😗

Spicy Indian dumpling made from dosa batter is a family's favorite breakfast recipe. The dosa batter itself is made up of lentils and rice which is spiced up with different condiments and veggies to make this spiced up crispy treats. Paniyaram  is made with specially designed 7 holed pan called Kuzhi Paniyaram pan. 

This recipe is predominant in tamil and telugu cuisines. This recipe tastes best when it is paired with tomato chutney. I make this recipe quiet often and serve it as appetizer when my friends (from other states in India) come over. They simply loved this dish !!

Note 1: I have not added seasoning to this recipe. This step is optional
Note 2: If the dosa batter is old, you can add a pinch of sodium-bi-carbonate (soda)

Ingredients

2 cups of Dosa batter
2 Carrots, shredded
1 onion, finely chopped
4 green chilies,finely chopped
Few sprigs of cilantro, finely chopped
salt

For Seasoning- (optional)
1 tsp Mustard seeds
1 tsp Bengal gram
few sprig of curry leaves
2 tsp of oil

Method

  • In a mixing bowl, mix together dosa batter, carrots, onions, chilies, cilantro and season it with salt 

  • (optional step) -  In a pan, heat oil. Add mustard seeds, bengal gram and curry leaves for tempering. Pour it on the batter and mix together
  • Heat the paniyaram pan. Add a drop of oil in each hole. Gently pour the batter in each hole and cover the pan

  • When the edges turn brown, flip paniyaram on the other side. Cook until both the sides turn brown . You can also prick a hole in toothpick. If it comes out clean then it is cooked
