What is the 285th Foodiemonday Bloghop Theme?
This week’s chosen theme is #PniyaramPanMagic and the hostess is Priya Vj. She wants us share any recipe using Paniyaram Pan. Priya is a versatile bloggers with many traditional and international recipes on her blog. I Loved her Inji Karvepillai thogayal.Do check her space. My humble contribution for this theme is delicious Beetroot Corn Bites.Ingredients for Beetroot Corn Bites :
- Beetroot : I have grated the beetroot. Squeezed the excess juice. I added this juice to my one pot millet meal. Great source of fiber and folate.
- Corn: I have used corn kernels.It is rich in fiber and aids digestion.
- Potatoes: I have used potatoes to bind the veggies. Potatoes are rich in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants.
- Rice Flour:It is gluten free. Helps to bind the veggies.
- Green chilli:I have added one green chilli that is not spicy. You can skip it if you making for young children.
- Salt: Main ingredient of the dish.
- Kashmiri Chilli Powder: Adds some color to the dish with a very mild spice kick.
- Chaat Masala:Chaat Masala enhances the taste with a little tang.
- Tikka masala: Gives a nice flavor and taste to the dish. You can add garam masala in case you do not have tikka masala.
- Kasuri Methi: I did not have coriander hence added kasuri methi. You can add any greens of your choice.
- Bread Crumbs: Just roll the balls in the bread crumbs . You will get a nice crisp texture.
- Oil : I just used little oil to grease the paniyaram pan .Made these bites in very less oil.
