Rava paniyaram

This yummy yummy stuff is a must in my house(in-laws) whenever we start a pooja for any auspicious occasion. They are so tasty and small too that they are always gone before even they are served properly :)I usually never get enough to have when so many people are at home during a puja, so my mil takes out a day specially for me and makes enuf for my sweet tooth. She is simply adorable. Hmmm.. now this recipe is simple to make and so always a choice to pick for you too

This is what u'll need....

Sooji/rava 1 cup

Maida 1 cup

Ripe banana - just a bite size

Sugar 3/4 cup

Cardamom 5

Cashews 3 tbspn

Raisins 3 tbspn

Oil

Here is the stir....

• Mix sooji, maida, water, banana and soak for 2-3 hrs
• Just before making add sugar, cardamom, cashew and raisins
• Drop spoonfuls into hot oil. Let them puff up and fry till they are golden brown. Dont put too many of them at a time as they tend to stick together
• These can be also be made using paniyaram chatti which will usually take a little lesser oil comparitively. I have posted images using these
• Drain them on a paper towel before serving
