Hindi: chawal
How many times have we thought rice is a blessing? We use it for holy purposes but we also can pressure up a quick pulao or khichdi when hunger pangs are drumming away! This is one grain that is about 98% percent digestible. In India we are familiar with Basmati, Patna or brown rice but it is also available as Italian Rice and Glutinous Rice which is popular in Chinese and Japanese cuisines.

Ingredients for Kuzhi Paniyaram Recipe

  • Rice 1/2 cup

  • Split black gram skinless (dhuli urad dal) 1/4 cup

  • Fenugreek seeds (methi dana) 1/8 teaspoon

  • Salt to taste

  • Oil 2 teaspoon

  • Onion 1 small

  • Green chilli 1

  • Mustard seeds 1/4 teaspoon

  • Cumin seeds 1/4 teaspoon

  • Curry leaves 20-25

Method

Step 1

Soak rice, parboiled rice, urad dal and fenugreek seeds for at least 5 hours. Drain and grind to a batter with a grainy texture. Transfer to a deep bowl and set aside in a warm place to ferment overnight. Add salt and mix well. Heat 2 tsps oil in a small non stick pan. Chop onion and green chillies.

Step 2

Add mustard seeds and cumin seeds to the oil and let them splutter. Add curry leaves, onion and green chillies and sauté for 2-3 minutes. Add this tempering to the batter and mix well. Place a paniyaram tawa on medium heat and grease each dent with a little oil.

Step 3

Pour a ladleful of batter in each dent, drizzle a few drops of oil along the sides and cook for 4-5 minutes till the underside is lightly browned. Turn them over using a spoon and drizzle a little more oil and continue to cook until both the sides are evenly cooked. Serve hot with coconut chutney.
