    What is Kuzhipaniyaram

    Kuzhipaniyaram known as paddu, gunta ponganalu, yeriappa, guliyappa are quick to make, and a very popular evening snack in many south-indian restaurants.

    Kuzhipaniyaram , small ball shaped dumplings made out of rice and dal batter. It is made colorful by adding some delicious tempering’s. They are cooked in aebleskiver pan, known as appe pan or paniyaram pan.

    Paniyaram

    Since made in appe pan, you can term them healthy as they tend to use less oil than the regular paniyaram which can be deep fried too.

    Varieties of Kuzhipaniyaram

    Savory paniyarams are mostly made using leftover idly/dosa batter. You can also soak and grind batter specifically for paniyarams, like this Chettinadu Vellai paniyaram or like this foxtail millet savory paniyarams .

    Paniyaram can be sweet too, check this exotic and delicious Jackfruit paniyaram, or simple instant wheat flour appam. If you are looking for another exotic fruit paniyaram, check this Apple Abeleskivers with chocolate cream.

    The Ingredients

    • Leftover idly/dosa batter, though made with 2-3 days old batter, you can also make freshly batter or grind batter specifically for paniyaram.
    • Peas and corn, the hero ingredient of this recipe. I have used frozen green peas and corn for this paniyaram.
    Khara paniyaram
    • Spices, I have used green chili, ginger and a handful of fresh coriander and mint leaves in the paniyaram.
    • Tempering, mustard seeds, cumin seeds, hing and curry leaves are used.

    Step by Step Instructions to make the paniyaram

    Please check recipe card below for exact measurements of each ingredient used and also for the detailed instructions

    • Let us prepare the tempering. Heat a pan with oil, splutter mustard seeds, cumin seeds, add hing, curry leaves, chopped green chili and ginger. Add chopped coriander and mint leaves. Saute for a minute.
    • To this add green peas and corn, add salt , sprinkle water. Cover and cook for a minute or two in a medium flame. Remove and add this tempering to the batter. Mix well.

    Equipment

    • Aebleskiver pan/Appe pan/Paniyaram pan

    Ingredients

    • 2 cups leftover idly batter
    • ¼ cup green peas i used frozen
    • ¼ cup sweet corn i used frozen
    • 1 teaspoon oil i used sunflower oil
    • 1 no green chili chopped finely
    • ½ inch piece of fresh ginger peeled and chopped finely
    • ¼ teaspoon hing/asafoetida
    • ¼ teaspoon salt
    • few curry leaves
    • handful of coriander and mint leaves
    • oil for cooking the paniyaram

    Instructions

    • Take out the idly/dosa batter from the refrigerator and let it come to the room temperature. While it is resting, chop the chilies and ginger.
    • In a pan, heat oil, splutter mustard seeds, cumin seeds, add hing, green chilies, ginger, curry leaves, coriander and mint and saute them all for 30 seconds.
    • To this now add peas and corn. Saute for a minute. Add salt and mix well. Sprinkle little water, cover and cook for a minute or two for the flavors to mingle. Keep the flame low, be watchful and don't burn the ingredients.

    Let us make Kuzhipaniyaram

    • Heat a appe pan/abeleskiver pan. I have used my cast-iron pan. Once hot, add a teaspoon of oil. Brush the oil well with a silicon brush into the holes. I have used totally 1 teaspoon oil for the pan.
    • Pour batter until ¾th in each of the holes of the paniyaram pan. Swirl another teaspoon of oil into the pan. Cover and cook for a minute in a medium flame for the paniyaram to cook.
    • After a minute, remove the cover, flip the paniyarams carefully with a skewer. Swirl another teaspoon of oil. Let it cook for another 30-40 seconds.

      Paniyaram is a great snack and easy to make since most South Indian houses stock on dosa batter. Love this veggie filled version!
