Punukulu is a very nice evening tea time snack. We like it very much, it goes very well with peanut chutney. There are two ways to make these punukulu, one is mixing maida that is all pupose flour with sour butter milk, and the other is soaking black gram and rice and grinding to a fine paste and making them. The second version takes a lot of oil, but the first one takes less oil. Of course it depends on the sourness of the buttermilk. If we use less sour buttermilk it takes less oil and vice versa.
