Rava kara kuzhi paniyaram

Rava kara kuzhi panaiyaram

Instant Rava kuzhi paniyaram is an easy South indian breakfast recipe. This recipe using sooji | rava as the main ingredient. I saw this post in instagram long back and noted down the recipe. In that recipe, they used Instant MTR Rava idli mix. As i had posted rava idli already, i thought i will make my own batter instead of using the MTR rava idli mix. The paniyarams turned out crispy outside and soft inside. Check out my other South indian breakfast recipes too. this can be served for dinner or can be served as an evening snack | tiffin.

  4. Usually whatever recipe I try from this blog is a hit. But this one simply would not bind. It soaked up too much oil, and was uncooked from the inside. The pictures look so lovely, but mine fell apart :(

    1. Hi, thanks for the message. The reason may be eno salt may be added more. Also the rava may be roasted for a long time.
      And one more reason is consistency of the batter may be thick.
