This has been inactive for a while now. I would love to try few of the recipes in here. Can you post more recipes. I will also add those I try at home. :)

To start with a quick tips:

When preparing kuzhipaniyaram, grind and add some corn to the batter. It will add some taste and smell to the paniyaram.

Thanks meena for the tips.
