Paasi Parupu Paniyaram

Paniyarams are quick food that are served hot. These are cute paniyarams which are very colorful and tasty. Adjust the green chili to taste. Make sure to chop the leaves fine. Addition of onion makes this one extra special. You can also avoid green chili and ginger and add pepper powder instead. I got this recipe from here and made very few changes. This batter is a boon to have on hand. Can be made the previous day and the paniyarams can be made in a jiffy for a breakfast, lunchbox or quick tiffin. You will need a kuzhi paniyaram pan to do this. I have used the non stick pan, so I needed just a few drops of oil per paniyaram. Traditional iron skillet may consume more oil.
