Kara Kuzhi Paniyaram, a famous South Indian recipe made from fermented rice and urad dal batter which is usually served as breakfast/dinner or even as evening tiffin along with chutneys and/or sambar. Traditionally for paniyaram recipe, a special batter  is prepared but in today's recipe, we're gonna take a short cut and use the leftover dosa/idli batter and make this awesome paniyaram in minutes. If you're looking for sweet paniyaram recipe using leftover dosa batter, check out my karupatti paniyaram recipe.

Making paniyaram from idli/dosa batter works just fine and the paniyaram would be soft and fluffy. Every time when i make this kara paniyaram, ST asks "என்ன தோசை மாவு காலியா ?"(is the dosa batter finished?) because it's kind of routine in our home that i would like to finish off every batch of dosa batter with this kara paniyaram. More than sambar we prefer chutneys for this paniyaram, our personal favorites are kara chutney and pottukadalai chutney. Both tastes awesome with this paniyaram.

Notes:
  • Cook it on medium flame for even coloring on the paniyaram.
  • I have used sesame oil for making paniyaram.
  • In addition to the tempering, you can add 1 tbsp of grated coconut & carrot also for more flavor and taste
  • Adding chana dal gives nice crunchiness  but it can be omitted totally if you don't like it.
