Paal Paniyaram - Chettinadu Special


We are completed more than half of our journey in A-Z series in Journey through the cuisine.For the letter P,I had several options such as paal,poli,paal kari,puliodhari but settled with paal paniyaram.

Paal paniyaram is a Chettinadu sweet delicacy in which a deep fried fritter is soaked in sweetened coconut milk.Itsprepared for most of the occasions for breakfast.

Since we like this sweet preparation a lot, mom used to make it frequently,especially after any special poojas.As the coconut and rice offered to God needs to be used in some sweet preparation.
Mom used the coconut milk for soaking the paniyarams but here I used both coconut milk and regular milk.Off to the recipe.......

Vegetable Biriyani - Pressure Cooker Method

Coming to day 3 of Blogging Marathon#62 under the theme quick dishes I am sharing a one pot meal.This biriyani can be made in 30 minutes if the veggies are chopped and kept or even frozen veggies can also be used. As I have the habit of chopping veggies for the next day cooking this takes only 20-25 minutes of cooking.Also I use the boiling hot water to cook the rice faster.When the rice is cooking in the pressure cooker you can make either a simple raita or an egg omelette to pair up with this biriyani.                                                                                                                                  ...
