Kuzhi Paniyaram is a South Indian delicacy made from a fermented batter of rice and urad dal (black gram), the same base used for idli and dosa. Cooked in a special pan with small, rounded molds, these bite-sized treats can be savory or sweet. The savory version is often spiced with chopped onions, green chilies, curry leaves, and sometimes grated vegetables, while the sweet version includes jaggery and coconut. Rich in probiotics from the fermentation process, Kuzhi Paniyaram supports gut health and is a good source of carbohydrates and protein. When prepared with minimal oil and enriched with vegetables, it becomes a wholesome, nutrient-packed snack. However, deep-frying or excessive oil can add to its calorie content, making portion control important. Its versatility and balance of taste and nutrition make Kuzhi Paniyaram a favorite in Indian households.
