Idli OR Dosa batter muffins
About:
This recipe is similar to paniyaram/gunta pungulu/paddu which is a popular breakfast or snack which is a mixture of the indian crepe spiced with chopped onion, green chillies, cumin seeds. This traditionally made using a paddu pan but baking it in the muffin tray also tastes great and off course low calorie as oil used is less.
Makes: 10-12muffins
Baking time: 18-20mins
Preparation time: 10mins
Ingredients:
- Leftover idly or dosa batter-2cup
- Carom seeds-1tsp

- Finely chopped onion-1num
- Grated carrot-1/2cup
- Chopped coriander-a handful
- Oil-to grease the muffins
- Baking soda-1/4tsp
- Salt-if required (as dosa batter already has salt)
Procedure:
- Dosa batter OR Idli batter links incase required. Both are made from brown rice as main ingredient
- Pre-heat the oven at 180deg c grease the muffin tray and place muffin cases.
- Add onion, chilli , coriander, carom seeds, grated carrot to the dosa/idly batter and mix well
- Now fill the 3/4of the muffin cases with the batter.
- Bake for 18-20mins or till the tooth pick inserted comes out clear.
