Ponganalu Recipe -- Paniyaram -- How to make Gunta Ponganalu Recipe

Ponganalu
Gunta Ponganalu -- Ponganalu -- Paddu -- Paniyaram -- Name may change but almost all of them are same. Ponganalu is the traditional snack of Andhra. It is fluffy and smooth. This is served in breakfast, with some spicy chutney. They are prepared in a special skillet which has slots (guntalu). It is called as ponganalu or paniyaram pan. We get non-stick pans and traditional stone pans also. It is better to use non-stick pan. But I have stone pan, so I use it.  
Ponganalu

Normally they are made with dosa or idly batter. Add some chopped onions, ginger and green chillies to get tasty ponganalu. I normally make with one or two day old dosa batter, as it will have little sourness.
