About Paddu
Paddu, also known as Gundponglu or Kuzhi Paniyaram, is a savory South Indian dish made from a fermented batter of rice and urad dal, similar to dosa or idli batter. These bite-sized, spherical snacks are cooked in a specially designed pan with multiple molds, often seasoned with ingredients like onions, chili, and curry leaves. Paddu is rich in carbohydrates from the rice and provides protein from the urad dal, making it a sustaining meal option. Fermentation enhances its nutritional profile, promoting gut health with probiotics. Typically low in fat, Paddu can be considered a healthy snack when cooked with minimal oil. Variations include vegetable-filled or spicy versions, and it’s often served with chutneys for added flavor. While nutritious, excessive use of oil or accompanying it with calorie-rich condiments may impact its overall healthfulness. Popular in Karnataka, Paddu is a staple in Indian breakfast or snack cuisines.
