Instant Rava Paniyaram | Rava Appam | Rava Appe

Instant Rava Paniyaram /Rava Appam/ Rava Appe is a delicious, easy to make breakfast dish/tea-time snack.

Generally paniyaram is made with idli batter which requires grinding of the rice and udad dal, fermenting etc. This instant rava paniyaram saves all the hassle of grinding, fermenting and can be made in a jiffy. All you need to do is – mix semolina and curd, keep aside for some time, add chopped vegetables of your choice and cook them in a paniyaram pan.

Though I have added a tempering of udad dal, mustard seeds, onion etc to the batter, you can make it by either adding any vegetables of your choice  or by adding oregano, chilli flakes, grated cheese etc.  to the batter.  Just like Rava dosa and rava idlis, these rava paniyarams turns out very tasty and pairs excellently with tangy orange coconut chutney or green chutney. Here goes the recipe for Instant rava paniyaram
