SWEET PANIYARAM

Hi friends a very special dish..... named..................SWEET PANIYARAM


INGREDIENTS:

2 measures boiled rice
 
1 measure urad dal

1 tsp fenugreek seeds

4 tbsp grated jaggery

Cardamom powder

Ghee

Sesame seeds for garnish

METHOD:

Soak boiled rice and urad dal overnight, along with fenugreek seeds. Grind it smoothly, with minimal water, and let it ferment for 6 hours. The batter should be thicker than dosa batter. (upto this part, it is the same as the recipe for making normal paniyaram batter).
To the batter, add grated jaggery and cardamom powder to taste.
Rub ghee on the paniyaram pan, pour the batter into the mould and allow it to cook on low heat.
Sprinkle roasted white til seeds on the top surface. When the paniyarams start to pull away from the edges, turn them around and allow it to cook further.
Serve hot, ideally with butter, but can be had otherwise.

HOLIGE/ PURANPOLI

 Hi friends HOLIGE PURANPOLI

Annie was not too happy with the way her puranpoli looked, “the house smelled heavenly..and it tasted divine but to my very critical eyes looked not up to snuff”, but with practice, it can only get better.

INGREDIENTS:

1 cup channa dal soaked and cooked and drained of excess water

1.5 cups of jaggery grated
1.5 cups of maida (of which some can be replaced with atta)

Cardamom pd/saunf pd/ nutmeg pd..1/4th each.

Ghee and salt to taste

METHOD:

Blend the cooked channa dal in a food processor till smooth.

Heat cooked dal and jaggery on low heat till the jaggery melts and it attains a smooth consistency. Add cardamom,nutmeg and saunf powder, and let it cool.

Roll it into balls with greased palms.
Meanwhile, knead the maid and atta flours with salt and warm water to get a smooth soft dough. Add 3 to 4 tbsp ghee and knead it some more till you get a very soft dough. Pour a tbsp of oil over the dough and keep aside.
Take small balls of the dough (smaller than the filling), pat it down on a silicon sheet with well oiled hands, place the filling in the centre, cover it and pat into shape.
Peel them off the sheet and onto a tava, and cook both sides. Add ghee, and serve when still hot.
