      Priya, I got your comment. Usually, after washing the berries, you can pat them dry in a paper towel and leave them aside for 5 mins.. then chop them and again let them give off the juice..and add some flour(1/2 tsp) to coat the berries, to absorb excess water. That way the berry will also stay attached to the batter and will not settle at the bottom of the pan..

      I pureed them so that I do not have to add extra liquid(egg/milk)..Let me know if this works.
