I made this easy, healthy and a traditional sweet paniyaram recipe – Karupatti paniyaram / Palm jaggery sweet paniyaram on New year day. Usually I make sweet paniyaram and Kara paniyaram recipe in two ways. One with leftover idli dosa batter and the other one is my MIL’s recipe that is prepared with a special batter ground using rice and dals.
