Punukulu

Today i was wondering what to do for lunch today,i didnt want to eat the regular stuff that i usually eat like chapathis or rice.So i opened the fridge and started searching ......n i happend to see this dosa batter which was sitting in my fridge for quite a long time...So then i got the idea of makeing these punukulu from the leftover dosa batter...

The weather was also cold outside so enjoyed my hot punukulu very welll with tomatoe pickle and a glass of nice lassi after it.






Ingredients

2 cups of left over dosa batter(the thick one which we have before makeing the dosa's)
1/2 medium onion chopped
3 green chillies chopped fine
1 inch ginger grated/chopped fine
1 tsp jeera
few sprigs of cilantro chopped
1 tbsp sooji(upma rava)
pinch of bakeing soda/powder


Method:

• Heat some oil for deep frying on medium heat.
• Next take the dosa batter,to this add all the chopped onions,chillies,ginger,cilantro,jeera.
• Now add the salt,sooji and bakeing soda/powder.Then mix the batter with a spoon
• Once the oil is hot,then keep droppping a tablespoon of batter into the oil...but dont crowd the pan.
• Once golden on oneside turn each of it ,Once its fully golden on both sides remove onto a tissue.
• Serve hot with any chutney like coconut/peanut or even pickle of ur choice like tomatoe or mangoe pickle or even tomatoe ketchup

This is a nice snack for a rainy day with a nice cup of hot tea.These punukulu have a crunchy texture because of the sooji we put into the batter.
