IDICHAKKA KUZHIPANIYARAM

I have already posted two raw jackfruit snack  recipes ie. bhajia and bonda.  Here is another version kuzhipaniyaram.

It is easy to make provided you have the idli batter at home.  When I purchase some ingredients, I try to make most use of the same by trying various dishes out of it.  As I was having lot of raw jackfruit with me, I made the three dishes out of which I have already posted two as mentioned above.

Everyone is familiar with Kuzhipaniyaram.  I just filled the same with the raw jackfruit masala in it.  But remember one thing, all these dishes tastes good when you serve them hot.

Now let us look at the recipe now:

Ingredients:

1 cup idli batter
raw jack fruit masala *
kuzhipaniyaram pan
oil

Method:

Step 1

Make 11 balls out of the masala made.  

Step 2

Heat kuzhipaniyaram pan.  Put one teaspoon oil in it.  dip the ball in the idli batter, place them in the goove.  cook both the sides and serve hot.

Note:

 If you wish, you can spice up the idli batter too with chilli powder, hing powder, black pepper powder.

Also can add bit gram flour in the batter or use the jackfruit bonda batter.
