Puliyappam

Need ideas to use left over Dosa batter? Let's make puliyappam with it. It is a crisp appam which goes well with Coconut Groundnut Chutney. All you need is a cast iron or non stick kuzhi paniyaram chatti / aebleskiver pan ( a pancake pan).



We also call it Kara Appa Chatti. This appam can be made for breakfast or even as evening snack. I found this recipe in my mini Double Horse Recipe Book. My family and kids loved it as it was a welcome change from the usual dosa.
