Recipe Source

Doctor Vikatan


Ingredients

Jowar/Sorghum/Vellai Cholam - 200 gm
Urad Dhal (Uzhundhu Paruppu) - 50 gm
Small Onions - 50 gm
Fenugreek (Vendhayam) - 1 tsp
Red Chillies - 4
Asafoetida - 1 pinch
Finely Chopped Coconut - 1 tbsp
Curry Leaves - Few
Oil - To fry
Salt - As needed


Method

Wash and soak jowar, urad dal, and fenugreek in just enough water for 5 hours.

Grind them together adding water to a dosa batter consistency.

Add finely chopped small onions, broken red chillies, salt, asafoetida, finely chopped coconut pieces, and finely chopped curry leaves to the batter and mix well.

Heat paniyaram pan on medium flame and drizzle little oil in each cavity.  Pour the batter in each cavity and allow to cook.

Turn over the paniyarams and roast both sides to golden brown drizzling enough oil over.

Serve hot with desired chutney.


Notes

Vellai cholam is rich in carbohydrates, proteins, and other nutrients.  Urad dal and fenugreek are iron and protein rich.  Vitamins and minerals enrich this combination of ingredients.  Good for development of healthy bones.  Skin disease prone persons should avoid the vellai cholam.
