Millet sweet paniyaram recipe with kodo millet, varagu in tamil. Perfect for evening snack or sweet cravings. A quick video, step by step detailed pictures.
My very first post with millet was paniyaram back in 2014. It was with thinai (fox tail millet). I wanted to make savory paniyaram with the varagu that was lying in pantry to be finished. Some how craved for sweet ones that amma makes with regular rice. The vendhayam and toor dal added to the paniyaram smells really good. It is the best I like about those. You can soak in the morning, grind in the afternoon and make for snack or dinner. Perfect right?
I have loads of naatu sakkarai too, so I am using it in this. Adding banana ensures softness. You can use regular jaggery too. Just replace same amount of well powdered jaggery. You can melt with very little water and make syrup to eliminate the impurities. You can even add some grated coconut for added softness and flavour. Check out my other millet recipes
