Paniyaram is a steamed food which is very common in Chettinad Cuisine. They can be made using dosa batter or you can follow a special recipe for it. My son loves paniyaram and that is why you will find varieties of recipes on my blog. Today’s recipe is made with sorghum millet/vella cholam and black urad dhal and hence making it extremely nutritious.

P.S:

I skipped fenugreek seeds but still, it was fluffy.

Rinse and wash sorghum as many times as possible.

The batter should either rise up or have millions of pores when whisked if fermented well.

Do not add much water while grinding the batter.

Add salt only when you are about to prepare the paniyaram.

Adding ghee instead of oil enhances the taste.

Always have a word with your paediatrician before introducing new food to babies

Skip the salt and offer to babies above 6 months
