Kuli (Kuzhi) paniyaram is South Indian dish or snack item. Chettinad kuli paniyaram is very famous with coconut or kara chutney. Paniyaram can be made using dosa batter also. But the real way of doing paniyaram is grinding batter specially for it.
Steaming batter in designed mould is called Kuli paniyaram. This can be made as sweet and also spicy. The recipe today is the second variety - Spicy. It needs small onions, reen chili and the batter.
Usually paniyaram pan has 7 holes. Nowadays paniyaram pan comes in nonstick, where we can reduce the oil content. Kara paniyaram goes well with coconut chutney or kara chutney. I like to have it as snack in evening. Some even like to have as night dinner.
Here i have shown the real way to make paniyaram batter. Let us learn.
Ingredients:
To soak:
Idly rice - 1 cup
Raw rice - 1 cup
Urud dhal - 1 tsp
Fennel seeds - 1 tsp
Onion - 1 chopped
Green chilies - 2 chopped
Hing - pinch
Cooking soda - pinch
curry leaves
Salt as required
Method:
1) Soak idly rice, raw rice, urud dhal and fennel seed minimun 3 hrs. I usually soak 5 hrs.
2) Grind this in grinder or mixie into a batter. Grind it coarsely.
3) Let it ferment for 5 hrs.
4) After 5 hrs add chopped onions, chilies, hing, cooking soda and curry leaves to it and mix well.
5) Heat the paniyaram pan in medium heat. As i have nonstick pan i use only a drop of oil in each kuli in pan.
6) Once pan is hot, pour mixed batter into kuli (3/4th). Cover it with lid.
7) After 2 mins open the lid and turn the paniyarams to other side and cook covered for a min.
8) Insert a tooth pick and should come out with no raw batter.
9) Paniyaram is ready and serve hot with favourite chutney.
Notes:
1) As am in america its hard to buy raw rice so i add rice flour which i buy from grocery store.
2) I like to add onions as such but you can also saute it in pan and add to batter.
3) If using normal paniyaram pan you may need extra oil so that paniyaram does not stick to it. Each time you have to add oil.
4) Do not burn the paniyaram in high heat. Always do in medium heat. Its golden brown color is the main winning secret.
